Two children and a woman have been attacked by four "dangerously out of control" dogs in southeast London.
The children, aged four and six, and a 30-year-old woman were taken to hospital after being found injured by police. Their injuries are non life-threatening.
The attack happened on Mickleham Road, St Paul's Cray, Orpington, shortly before 9am on Saturday, the Metropolitan Police said.
The force said a woman has been arrested on suspicion of having dogs dangerously out of control.
Superintendent Mitch Carr said: "I know this incident will have caused a lot of public concern, especially due to the young age of the children injured.
"The dogs have also been taken to police kennels while the investigation is ongoing.
"Extra officers will be in the area over the next few days to provide community reassurance."
