A 17-YEAR-OLD boy who started a dog fight has been fined £200.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, encouraged the animal, a similar breed to a pitbull, to attack another dog outside John Billam Sports Ground, in Woodcock Hill, Kenton.
It injured its face in the process.
The boy admitted one charge of causing an animal to fight at Brent Magistrates Court on Monday.
He was banned from keeping animals for ten years.
