It wouldn't help their sensationalistic reporting style. I was listening to my scanner the night this happened. Oddly enough, the so called victim who is claiming he was bitten had a dealing with sheriff's deputies prior to making his “I was attacked” claim. From what I heard on the scanner, he was less than cooperative at the time of his first dealing and then a couple of hours later when he called for an ambulance he was even more uncooperative. I know somebody who works at the hospital where he was taken to and he was a real jerk in there too. Sounds like somebody who had too much to drink and was looking to make a name for himself. Even if it was a big cat, the chances of it attacking unprovoked are slim. Every time there is a rumor of an animal on the prowl that isn't indigenous to this region people panic and freak out. If you see it, leave it alone!! Don't reach for it, ignore it. It is a wild animal and belongs in the wild. 8/5/2008 12:07 PM EDT on wkyc.com |
I hadn't read the comments yet on the site, gonna go read them soon as I post this. Man, that's be scary building practically next to a place that had wild animals in cages, I wonder how secure and well built they are?
