62-year-old attacked by bobcat, however he kicked it's ass.

A 62-year-old man said he is glad he followed his instincts when a rabid bobcat attacked him when he took out the trash in the morning. A bobcat bit Dale Rippy in the abdomen and scratched him on his arms and legs.

Rippy stopped the attack by choking the bobcat. Animal Control took away the animal, which later tested positive for rabies. Rippy was placed on medication. He also received shots. "If that cat had attacked a child, it would've been really bad. It wouldn't have quit," said Rippey. » Article here
