Fox attacks worshippers in SC church
SPARTANBURG, SC (AP) - The Wednesday night youth programs at a South Carolina church were interrupted when a fox attacked and several people are waiting to see if they face rabies treatment.
The Herald-Journal of Spartanburg reported Friday a woman opened the door of the family life center at Liberty Baptist Church in Inman to lead the youth to the main building when the fox attacked.
Pastor David Duncan said the fox jumped on the skirt of his 20-year-old daughter, Alicia Duncan, and its teeth scratched her legs. Two other people were bitten.
Several people tried to scare the fox outside and had to use metal chairs to hit it.
Officials say the animal was hurt when officers arrived and it died shortly thereafter. The Department of Health and Environmental Control was conducting tests to determine if it was rabid.
