'The driver headed on his way and my dog died in my arms whilst I tried to seek help'
A mum has been left heartbroken after her dog died in her arms after being run over in Edinburgh. Laura Kilgallon, 40, had been out walking her beloved eight-year-old Shih Tzu, Woody, when a motor, believed to be a private hire taxi, struck the pooch.
Laura was left scrambling for help as the furry family member died in her arms, before she had to go home and break the devastating news to her children just weeks before Christmas. "The driver got out and claimed he didn't see him and stated that he didn't have a light on but as a driver, it is his duty to see him. This happened on a local street in a built-up residential area that is a 20mph zone with well-lit streets."
"I took him to the vet hospital and they confirmed he had gone. I’m finding it difficult to look at pictures of him so heartbreaking. Our Cmas is now tainted he was the best big brother and protector of us. He was a character and our hearts break."
