Officers are issuing new images of a man they want to trace as part of their investigation after a dog died after being attacked by another dog in Bristol.

At about 4 pm on Friday, 8 August, in Hanover Place, on Spike Island, a large dog, described as a grey short-haired mastiff or pit-bull type, attacked a smaller dog, which, sadly, died of its injuries.

Ongoing enquiries have led to officers obtaining new images of a man they hope the public can help to identify.

The man pictured is described as white, believed to be in his 20s or early 30s, approximately 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, and of a slender build. He was wearing a grey baseball cap, a black t-shirt, grey jogging bottoms and carrying a small bag at the time.

Officers would like him to come forward. If you recognise him or have any other relevant information, please call 101 using the reference number 5225226207.
