Two boys were taken to hospital after being attacked by a dog.

One of the boys, aged nine, had injuries to his arm and ear. Another slightly older boy had a small cut to his hand.

Police officers and paramedics were called to a house in Commissioners Road, Strood at 2.18pm on Monday following a report that a dog had bitten two boys.

Both the boys were taken to Medway Maritime Hospital as a priority.

A spokeswoman for Kent Police said: "Officers have spoken to parties involved and inquiries are ongoing."
