Boy Bitten by Lioness On Garden Grove Street

A 11 year old boy was bitten by a lioness during a street show in Garden Grove. The incident prompted 15 Orange County sheriff's deputies to cordon the area while the boy and his father were hospitalized. Trainer George Fraiser said the boy likely teased the tame animal, though the father denies this. The lioness was later coaxed from high weeds by Fraiser. The Health Department ordered the animal observed for rabies for 14 days. The act titled Comedy of Lions featured Cubby the lioness and a male lion described as the bad actor in the show. The affair disrupted a two day display at a local auto dealership.
