Green Party candidate loses finger to dog while delivering campaign leaflets

A candidate's unfortunate encounter

A local election candidate for the Green Party, Danica Priest, had a shocking experience while posting campaign leaflets. As she was pushing a flyer through a letterbox, a dog inside the house bit off the tip of her finger.

The aftermath of the incident

Danica was rushed to the hospital, and the homeowner later discovered the end of an index finger on their doormat. Despite efforts to save the finger, surgeons deemed it impossible to reattach.

A cautionary tale for all

Danica, a 37-year-old aspiring councilor from Bristol, shared her story as a warning to both leafletters and dog owners. She emphasized the importance of caution while campaigning in residential areas.
