A woman has been reported to prosecutors after a 10-year-old girl was bitten on the face by a dog.

Toni Clannachan had part of her cheek torn apart when an American akita dog bit her while she was playing in a schoolfriend's garden at a house in Kilmarnock on Tuesday.

The youngster, who was taken to Crosshouse Hospital in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, remained in a stable condition in hospital on Thursday.
