SNP councillor bitten by dog

A COUNCILLOR putting pamphlets through a letterbox ended up in hospital after being bitten by a dog.

Alex McLellan was campaigning for the SNP in Aberdeen yesterday when he was left bloodied by the injury, thought to have been caused by a German Shepherd. He went to casualty for treatment to his finger.

He told the Press and Journal newspaper: ‘This is not something I have encountered before. No one in the Aberdeen SNP seems to have either.’
