Unfortunately, a heartbreaking mistake was made when Bruno, a beloved XL bully, was euthanized while in police custody. The family is understandably devastated and the police force has since issued a sincere apology for their error.
According to Lancashire Police, Bruno was seized from his home in Morecambe in August due to the breed being banned under the Dangerous Dogs Act. The owners were in the process of applying for an exemption to keep him, but unfortunately, an administration error led to Bruno being put down instead.
In a statement, the police force expressed their regret and explained that a file was being prepared for the owner to potentially face charges related to the breed ban. However, due to the mistake, Bruno was euthanized before the court hearing could take place.
The force has since implemented new measures to prevent a similar tragedy from occurring in the future. They have recognized the gravity of their error and are taking steps to ensure it will not happen again.
Local MP Lizzi Collinge has also spoken out about the incident, demanding answers and accountability from the police. She expressed her shock and disappointment at the news, stating that there should have been proper protocols in place to prevent such a mistake.
Collinge also highlighted the importance of following the legal process when dogs are under police care, and it is clear that in this case, proper procedures were not followed. She has pledged to support the family and has urged the police to disclose their plans for preventing similar incidents in the future.
It is a tragic and avoidable situation that has left a family without their beloved pet. It is now up to the police force to take responsibility and make necessary changes to ensure that this never happens again. Our hearts go out to the family during this difficult time.
