Greater Manchester Police released photos of the injury suffered by the 21-year-old PC after she was attacked in Rochdale.
Hancock: 'Stay home however warm the weather'pandemic as"just the lowest of the low", writing on Twitter:"Words fail me when it comes to some people's behaviour."Superintendent Richard Hunt said he recognised the pictures of the officer's bite injury were"quite graphic" but he hoped they helped people"understand the vicious nature of this attack".
"This is a particularly challenging time for everybody at the moment, made worse by something so mindless like this," he added. "Having spoken to the officer earlier this morning, she said that [Thursday] night's incident was a stark contrast to the support she has felt over the past few days, whilst she has been delivering Easter eggs to local children whilst out on patrol.
"This just goes to show that thankfully, incidents like this are not a reflection of the vast majority of the public, who are showing great support to us."
