A dog, which sparked a police call out after it was spotted on the loose, has been reunited with its owner.

Police responded to an incident in Beckham Road, Lowestoft where a dog was found running around without a collar to identify who it belonged to.

The large ginger and white dog – possibly a Japanese Akito breed or similar – was soon reunited with its owner after an appeal on the Lowestoft Police Facebook page.

A police spokesman said: 'Thank you for everyone's help with the lost dog.

'He has now been reunited with his owner.'
