Rabid Fox attacks residents in Plymouth Township, MI

Detroit News is reporting that

A rabid fox is still on the loose today after biting a township woman and her beagle near Ann Arbor Trail and McClumpha last night.

Around 9 p.m. Thursday, the crazed animal "came out of nowhere," nipped at the woman's ankle and broke the skin, said Plymouth Township Police Chief Thomas Tiderington.

The woman's dog then chased the fox and was also bit. Both sought medical treatment, he said.

The incident is the latest following several attacks occurring in the same area over the last month.

"There's not much we can do…except notify the public to be on the lookout," Tiderington said. "We've contacted professional animal control and we're discussing what capabilities they have."

Careful out there when jogging or taking your dog for a walk!
