An Island vet has hit back at online trolls, after a hate campaign against him on Facebook.
Ray Cox runs Milan Vets, and says the campaign started after one of his staff treated a banned-breed pitbull dog - something they're required by law to report to the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture.
Ray says the case has led to wild and libellous posts about him on social media, prompting him to post a statement to Facebook last week.
He says it's been an upsetting time for family and friends as people continue to post slurs:

Ramsey roads shut because of coastal overtopping
