Baby Fair After Cat Chews Foot
Parents of a 7-week-old boy in Beltsville Maryland were charged with keeping a wild animal after their pet ocelot chewed off part of the infant’s left foot. The baby, Thomas Perry, was hospitalized in serious condition as the ocelot reportedly had run of the house. A separate Monrovia incident described a teenage mother killing a prowler who threatened her infant with a 30-30 carbine. The assailant, Jack Davis Alford, had a burglary history and was masked during the confrontation.
