Police and paramedics were called to a block of flats at just after 6.30pm on Christmas Day, in Bletchley near Milton Keynes, after worried neighbours heard screams for help and raised the alarm.

One described how a white pitbull was seen limping away from the scene covered in blood. 

Police today confirmed that the dog ‘thankfully survived this incident’.

Grant is thought to have moved to Bletchley three years ago and had previously lived in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, with her family.

Her sister Parris Grant told MailOnline: ‘We’re not talking to anyone at the moment.’

On Friday police were continuing a forensic examination of the flats and nearby alleyways following the Christmas Day horror which left locals shocked.

One told MailOnline: ‘I heard screaming and shouting looked outside and the boy was outside saying ‘I’ve been stabbed’ he was covered in blood and had wounds to his chest and head.

‘There was a woman on the balcony screaming for help and saying she couldn’t breathe … but police were there within seconds.’

Another neighbour showed MailOnline CCTV footage of what looked like a white pit-bull limping away covered in blood.

He added: ‘It’s not what you expect around here, it’s pretty quiet and not what you expect on Christmas Day of all days. It’s really knocked everyone because it is so quiet around here.’

Neighbours also said the 17-year-old, who has not been named, fled his home screaming ‘he’s stabbed me’ in the Christmas Day horror.
