Police are searching for a woman who was “savagely beaten” in an unprovoked attack as she walked in a street near Kilburn with her two dogs.
The woman was walking alone down Carlton Hill when a man approached her from behind, punched her to the floor and began repeatedly kicking her at about 5.30pm on Sunday, February 22.
The attack - which left the woman and her two Staffordshire Bull terriers injured - was only stopped when two passersby stepped in and detained the man.
But, despite their pleas, the woman refused to wait and left before police arrived.
Officers who attended the scene arrested the man, aged 32, and he was taken into custody at a north London police station and later bailed pending further enquiries.
