A Belfast woman has been sentenced at Belfast Magistrates Court today, Tuesday 27 August 2024, following her conviction for an offence involving a dog attacking a person.
Belfast City Council took the prosecution against Shauneen Brown of Broom Drive, Belfast.
This was after reports that Ms Brown’s Pug type dog had attacked and injured a three-year-old boy, biting him on the arm, at Broom Drive, Belfast on 2 June 2023.
Ms Brown received a 4-month prison sentence, suspended for one year and required to pay £131 legal and court costs.
