Local Rabid Beasties
LITTLE COMPTON — A series of at least 19 encounters with possibly rabid animals in this community since July 1 has police officials on the alert, issuing warnings to citizens, and responding to an influx of calls about sightings.
This is what happens when you have no natural predators (i.e. men in orange and cammo with rifles and shotguns) to thin the flock.
According to Police Chief Sidney M. Wordell, six animals have been destroyed — two skunks, two raccoons and two foxes. Two people, he said, have been bitten by foxes that were reported to have been acting aggressively. In the first fox bite incident, William Ryan, 9, of 134 Maple Ave. was getting out of the front passenger seat of the family car at 7:45 p.m. on Saturday, July 23, when a fox attacked and bit him on the toe.
And here is my favorite part...
Little Compton police officer Jason Peixoto, evidently in the area responding to another sighting, destroyed the animal shortly thereafter with one shot from his service pistol.
Nicely done Officer Peixoto.
