Bull Terrier Attack On Heart Patient

Sydney Morning Herald

Tuesday September 17, 1991

By SANDRA HARVEY

A bull terrier dog charged and attacked a 63-year-old man as he was strolling along a South Coast beach on Monday afternoon.

The attack occurred just one day after baby Joshua Williams was mauled to death by his family’s pet bull terrier in the backyard of their North Richmond home.

In the latest attack, Mr Leonard Crane was forced to use his walking stick to fend off the dog which charged at him from 40 metres on Collingwood Beach at Jervis Bay shortly before 5.30pm.

Sergeant Barry Passlow from Nowra police said Mr Crane was not injured by the dog but was extremely distressed by the attack.

“He had recently undergone heart surgery and his doctors had said: ‘no stress’. This was just what he didn’t need,” Sergeant Passlow said.

The white bull terrier was one of two unleashed dogs which arrived on the beach with a man and a woman as Mr Crane was taking a stroll.

Sergeant Passlow said the woman called the dog off Mr Crane, but she and the man with her refused to give Mr Crane their names.

Sergeant Passlow said the dogs were supposed to be restrained on leashes and police were making inquiries to try to find the owners.

The Federal Government is expected to announce within three weeks a ban on the import of dangerous dogs.

Green lights

The Cooma branch of the Road Safety Council will soon launch a big campaign to make the public more road safety conscious.

The newly elected president of the council, Mr Kevin Kleist, said yesterday that the branch’s annual meeting on Monday had voted unanimously to launch the campaign.

The branch is planning three initial projects: a headlight efficiency test for the town’s motorists; a bicycle testing service for the children, and a “Keep the Christmas Tree Green Project.”

A tree erected in the town would be covered with green fairy lights.

Every time there was an accident in the district during the holiday period a green light would be replaced with a red one.

A public meeting will be held on November 15 to create interest in the campaign.

The annual meeting elected Senior Constable Cliff Oakman and Mr Lou McCausland as vice-presidents and Mr. Bill Tonner as secretary and treasurer.
