Man and woman mauled by 'Bully-type dog' as three animals seized from home
Police have seized three dogs after a man and woman were mauled and seriously injured in the middle of the night. The man and woman, in their 30s and 20s respectively, were rushed to hospital after the horror attack in Blackpool shortly after 2.30am on June 15. The bully-type dog thought responsible was seized, as were two other dogs at the scene. A Lancashire Police spokesperson told The Mirror: "We were called at 2.38am today by colleagues at the North West Ambulance Service to an address in Havelock Street, Blackpool, to a report two people had been attacked by a dog. Officers attended and found that a man in his 30s and a woman in her 20s had suffered dog bite injuries. They were taken to the hospital for treatment. A bully-type dog involved in the attack has been seized, as have two other dogs at the premises." Last month, a church volunteer was viciously attacked by an XL Bully while he was sleeping - with the banned breed ripping off his ear. Darren Shuttleworth-Long was looking after the dog, which isn't his, when he was set upon on April 26 earlier this year at an address in Exeter Street, Swindon. The 52-year-old had fallen asleep next to the pet but woke up to it with its jaw locked underneath his armpit. The dog continued to attack and bite Darren, from Swindon, Wiltshire, for around 10 minutes. The XL Bully managed to tear his right ear off and also left half of Darren's nose "hanging off". Darren, a volunteer at his local church, said: "I went to sleep and had the dog asleep next to me. I woke up and it had latched on the side of me. I managed to move it off. "It attacked me again and hit me on the side. I crashed against the bedroom door and locked myself in with the dog. He was having a go on my right ear. He bit my ear off. He hit me about eight to ten times - I thought 'I'm in serious trouble'." It comes after the owner of a Bully dog that attacked a five-year-old boy claimed the child was "in the wrong". Arron Eccles' Pocket Bully attacked Antonio Quinn after the boy came into the house and startled the pet. The dog left Antonio with injuries to his face and legs. Antonio went on to need a three-hour-long operation and the pet as well as a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, owned by Aaron's partner, were taken away from the site of the attack. But Aaron, 34, has defended his pet, telling The Sun: "It's a genuine mistake and the parents aren't accepting the fact that their child's in the wrong for coming into the house." rron also said he would be happy for his pet to play with his own six-month-old son. Antonio's stunned mum Amanda Holmes slammed the owner's claim and said the child was "very lucky to be alive", insisting he was not at all to blame. She claimed that "trying to justify" the dog's behaviour was "sickening".

What rapper Kanye West has legally changed his name to
American rapper and fashion designer, best known as Kanye West, has changed his name again. Kanye West, who has in recent years opted to just be known as Ye, has allegedly claimed the shortened version of his name is so nice that he wants people to say it twice. And so, Ye Ye is born. The New York Post got hold of documentation filed in California by Hussain Lalani, Ye Ye's chief financial officer. The documents cite the artist's name as Ye Ye after he had previously been listed as Ye West after the initial change in moniker. The eccentric public figure took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share the news of this recent development in his rather tumultuous life. 'Ima finally going to stop using the @kanyewest Twitter cause my name is Ye. Gonna start a ye account and it is what it is,' he revealed. In his backpacking era, the days of soul beat Kanye, his given name was derived from the region in Botswana of the same name. The word, or his name, also had another meaning in Setswana. In changing his name to just Ye, he said, 'In the Bible, it means 'you.' So, I'm you. I'm us. It's us. It went from being Kanye, which means the only one, to just Ye.' The name Ye is so nice, he now likes saying it twice. Ye Ye recently made his Donda 2 album more readily available after initially dropping it on his pioneering stem players, which very few people cared to purchase. He is also either gearing up or still contemplating the release of the not-so-highly anticipated album, Bully, which has been in the works now for quite some time with no concrete release date settled on.
