Chimpanzee Attack Caught On 911 Call

“A Connecticut woman pleaded for police to ‘please hurry’ to save a friend from an attack by a pet chimpanzee, according to emotional 911 recordings released Tuesday by Stamford police. ‘He’s ripping her apart,’ Sandra Herold, 70, tells dispatchers about her pet, Travis. With the chimp squealing in the background, Herold cries out, ‘He’s killed my friend!’ The victim, Charla Nash, 55, remains hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after the chimp, once featured in television commercials for Coca-Cola and Old Navy, attacked her Monday afternoon, police said.” [Link]
