An 85-year-old woman was attacked Monday by a squirrel at a Deltona, Florida, senior living facility Monday morning and injured her wrist, city officials said.
A staff member shot the squirrel with a BB gun, officials said.
A groundskeeper later found the animal, which will be tested for rabies.
911 caller: "I have a mid-80s female who has fallen and has sustained a squirrel bite."
Operator: "A squirrel bite?"
Caller: "Yes."
It was the second reported squirrel incident at the Sterling Court apartments in Volusia County.
Three people were injured last week in another squirrel attack.
