“A deputy shot and killed an adult pet chimpanzee named Buck after it attacked a woman in Eastern Oregon, sheriff's officials said. The Umatilla County Sheriff's Office said the chimpanzee, who had lived with Tamara Brogoitti for 17 years in Pendleton, started attacking Brogoitti's daughter on Sunday morning, CBS affiliate KOIN-TV reports.
Brogoitti, 68, called 911 and said the animal had bitten her 50-year-old daughter in the torso, arms and legs and that her daughter was hiding in a basement bedroom, sheriff's Lt. Sterrin Ward said.”
I feel sorry for the chimp. Not so much for the woman.

An adult Chimpanzee has about twice the strength of a grown man. I worked with a guy who had worked at Yerkes Primate Center. A loose chimpanzee was terrifying.
