Jogger runs mile with rabid fox locked on her arm

Nov 5 03:27 PM US/Eastern


PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) - With a fox locked onto her arm, an Arizona jogger
ran a mile to her car, where she was able to dislodge the animal, throw it
into the trunk and drive to a Prescott hospital. The Yavapai County Sheriff's
Office said the fox, which later attacked an animal control officer, tested
positive for rabies.
The unidentified Chino Valley resident told deputies she was on a trail
Monday at the base of Granite Mountain when the fox attacked, biting her
foot. The woman said she grabbed it by the neck when it went for her leg and
it latched onto her arm.

Thinking the fox was rabid, she wanted to make sure it didn't get away so she
ran to her car, where she was able to pry open its jaws, wrap it in a sweat
shirt and toss it into the trunk.

The woman is receiving rabies vaccinations, as is the animal control officer.
