Two dogs were killed after they ran out in front of two vehicles – causing a crash on a main route between Godmanchester and Papworth.

The dogs were among a number that ran onto the A1198 at about 12.50pm on Saturday (February 5), causing a collision involving two vehicles.

An investigation is now underway to establish how the dogs – which were all foxhounds or a similar breed – ended up on the road.

Neither driver was injured as a result of the collision and no arrests have been made.

Sergeant Tom Nuttall, from the Rural Crime Action Team (RCAT), said: “We’re appealing for anyone who was involved in the collision or who witnessed what happened to come forward.

“We are particularly keen to speak to anyone who has relevant dashcam footage.”
