A raccoon that attacked at least three people in Westchester County, NY, has been confirmed to have been infected with rabies, and the victims are undergoing treatment. The animal is suspected to have been squatting in a nearby, vacant house, and was reportedly beaten to death with an iron tamping rod while engaged in combat with its final victim. Residents voiced concerns that the animal may have passed the infection to other animals in the vicinity, leading to a continuing, potential danger of additional attacks.
