Guest guest Posted November 12, 2002 Report Share Posted November 12, 2002 LONDON (Reuters) - A squirrel is spreading terror in a Cheshire town where it keeps attacking people. <A HREF= " http://rd./dailynews/story/article/573/photo/*http://story.news.y\ ahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2 & u=/021107/170/2mm4y.html " >Reuters Photo</A> Its latest victim was a two-year-old girl, British newspapers reported on Thursday. Children have been attacked, grown men chased and residents of Knutsford, central England, are fearful of letting their kids out to play, the Times newspaper said. The rogue squirrel's latest attack was on toddler Kelsi Morley who was bitten on the forehead. " It was awful because she (Kelsi) was spinning around and we couldn't get it off, " her mother told the newspaper. " From the amount of blood there was, I thought it had taken Kelsi's eye out. " The squirrel eventually let go and the terrified youngster was rushed to a doctor. Colin Booty, a senior scientific officer in the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said it was very unusual for a squirrel to behave like this. Local resident Blanche Kellye said the problem was not funny. " Everyone round here is living in fear...it's a vicious little thing. I'll never trust squirrels again.
