PET DOG STABBED TO DEATH BY GANG

A GANG wielding blades and hammers chased a man through a housing estate before stabbing his pet dog to death.

Four armed attackers pursued the dog owner and his two Alsatians into an Edinburgh shop in broad daylight.

He barricaded himself inside the Premier Calder Park Supermarket, leaving his dogs trapped outside.

The animals, which appeared to pose no threat, were stabbed, slashed and bludgeoned with hammers and steak knives in the sickening attack.

One of the dogs died while another was seriously injured.

One local told the Record: "This was terrifying. They were chasing one guy and his two dogs all around the Calders estate. They were tooled up with hammers and knives.

"They cornered the guy in a local shop and he managed to sort of barricade himself inside.

"That's when the gang decided to set about the dogs.

One was stabbed to death and the other looked touch and go.
