Grandma and boy, 12, mauled by ferocious dog during attack like a ‘horror film’
A GRANDMA and a 12-year-old boy have been mauled by a ferocious dog in an attack like a "horror film".
Cheryl May and her grandson Zac were attacked by a dog described as a British bull terrier at around 9.10pm on February 15 at St Ives Holiday Park in Cornwall.
The grandmother said she was left "traumatised" and seriously injured after being bitten by the dog.
She told that the dog first attacked Zac before turning on her after it was pulled off him by her daughter Natalie.
Cheryl said she was followed into the park's clubhouse by the dog's owners, who she claims were filming her.
She said: "I've been in shock for three days and shaking and crying. It was awful, it was like a horror film. I can't sleep.

"I've got a massive bruise on my chest. My arms are full of bites, I've got antibiotics to take."

Police were called and the incident is now being investigated.
