A dog which attacked another dog and its owner has died after being Tasered by police.
Leicestershire Police said it was necessary for its firearms officers to deploy the Taser to prevent further injuries.
They were called to Braunstone Town at about 19:05 on Sunday.
The injured owner was taken to hospital for treatment to puncture wounds to his legs and the attacked dog was taken to a veterinary practice.
Police said the dead dog could have attacked its officers or members of the public if it had not been stopped.
'Aggressive'The force said in a statement: "In the interests of public safety, firearms officers were deployed to the scene.
"On arrival the attacking dog continued to be aggressive and attack the dog and its owner."
Police have not yet said what breed the dog was but have asked for anyone with information about the attack to contact them.
Tasers incapacitate people by administering an electric shock and are designed to be non-lethal weapons when used on humans.
