KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 5 — Police have confirmed that the dog which attacked and bit a six-year-old boy in a residential park in Batu 9, Cheras, last Wednesday is a stray with no owner.
Kajang OCPD Assistant Commissioner Naazron Abdul Yusof said the verification was carried out by the Kajang Municipal Council (MPKj).
“MPKj has issued a notification regarding the dog to the Veterinary Department for further action,” he said in a statement today.
