This past Sunday, a man from Pickaway County, Ohio was rushed to the hospital because he had his arm ripped off by an attacking Zebra!
At around 5:30 pm, the Sheriff’s Department got a call about a serious injury at a field that was apparently fenced-in. The zebra that attacked him was actually owned by him! When they arrived at the scene, they found the man laying on the ground with his right arm covered by his shirt sleeve. They reported that the mans arm had been bitten off by his Zebra!
While the Sheriffs Department tried to help the injured man, the wild Zebra tried to attack them. It also charged one of their cruisers.
The man was rushed to the hospital where they said he will most likely not lose his arm. They believe the one Zebra was being protective of five female Zebras that were also out in the field. The Deputies used air horns to try scare the zebras away, but one continued to charge at them. They eventually had to fatally shoot the Zebra to stop it from attacking.
The man is expected to make a full recovery. We have more on this story and more in today’s Other News!
