People on the beach with dog and swans

Tragic swan deaths in Freshwater: Police request assistance in identifying persons of interest

Do you know the people pictured?

The West Wight Neighbourhoods Policing Team would like to identify and speak with them as part of their ongoing enquiries into an incident in Freshwater.

Police received a report at 7.41pm on Friday 7th April that a dog had chased and attacked swans near The Causeway. Two swans have subsequently died.

We appreciate the image is not the best quality, but perhaps you know these people and can recognise them from their clothing and the dark-coloured dog which can be seen in the picture.
