A dog was destroyed by armed police after officers responded to concerns for the welfare of a woman in Rochdale.
Officers were scrambled to Rowland Court last night (Tuesday) over concerns for a woman in a house. They found an 'aggressive' man on the scene.
He used a 'dangerous dog' against officers before it escaped from the property, police said. Armed police then responded and 'used every available tactic' to try and subdue the dog.

But due the risk posed to neighbours and locals, it was 'humanely destroyed'. The dog was a Pitbull-type breed, the Manchester Evening News understands.
The man, aged 41, was arrested on the scene for common assault and battery. He was also arrested on suspicion of owning a dangerous dog, police said.
He remains in custody where he will be quizzed by detectives. In a statement, a GMP spokesperson said: "At around 10:55pm on Tuesday 16 May 2023, officers were called to a concern for welfare of a woman at a property on Rowland Court in Rochdale.
"Upon attending the scene a 41-year-old male became aggressive with officers and used a dangerous dog against officers attending the incident. The dog escaped the property and armed officers were deployed to attempt to control the dog.
"GMP’s officers reviewed and actioned every available tactic available to subdue the dog and bring it to safety. Due to the significant risk the dog posed to the members of the public, the dog was humanely destroyed.
"The 41-year-old male was arrested at the scene for common assault and battery and owning a dangerous dog. He remains in custody for further questioning."
