‘Bloodthirsty’ squirrel attacks 18 people in small Welsh village in two-day Christmas rampage
The RSPCA said it had not choice but to put ‘Stripe’ downA squirrel’s reign of terror over a sleepy Welsh village has been brought to an end after it bit 18 residents leaving some too scared to leave their homes.
Nicknamed Stripe, after the vicious baddie from Gremlins, the grey squirrel was finally caught in a humane trap and handed to the RSPCA by Corrine Reynolds who had been feeding it from her garden in Buckley in North Wales.
It came after more than a dozen locals reported being attacked by the rodent with some posting gory images of bloody bite marks and deep scratches requiring tetanus jabs amid the two-day “rampage”.
The critter was also accused of biting dogs, cats and chasing people down country roads as they fled in terror.
On the Buckley Residents Facebook group, Ms Reynolds, a 65-year-old carer, warned the squirrel had bitten as many as 18 villagers.
