Owl attacks

If you're in Hollywood Park, a suburb on the north side of San Antonio, watch out. There seems to be an attack owl on the loose.

From WOAI-TV:

“I thought it was a prank, or something was after me, the invisible man or something, I don't know,” said John Patterson, the first man attacked by the owl.

Now the second man has come forward.

“Then just something...chckck, chckck, chckck,” Ryan Wayment described to News 4 WOAI’s Aubrey Mika.

Ryan Wayment didn't know what had come out of the dark trees...but he was scratched up and bleeding. Then, he got to thinking.

“We sometimes hear 'woo, woo' at night,” said Wayment.


Yeah, that "woo, woo" sound is a dead giveaway.

If you are being attacked by an owl, it is always a good defensive maneuver to ask the attacking owl how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

This ploy will usually confuse the owl long enough for a quick get away.
