The alarming CCTV appears to show a man and a dog being chased down the street by another man armed with what appears to be a baseball bat.

The man carrying the bat struck the other man a number of times before hitting the dog, according to a witness.

The incident took place in broad daylight shortly after 12.40pm on Wednesday in Eccles, Manchester.

After a heated exchange the men walk back down Barton Lane and out of shot, according to witnesses.
