PEKING, China. (AP) —

The search for "Bingo", a 900 pound gorilla, is still continuing in China today. The gorilla has been loose for 12 days and the number of deaths have risen to 19.

Earlier this week, two elderly women were found trampled and beaton to death in an alley located by a shopping center. They were surrounded by fecal matter. Then, two days later, a child was found dead in a bush.

"We cannot seem to trap the gorilla. We have tried banana's, darts, and other objects, but the gorilla seems unharmed" Juio Gin replies after another day's search has ended.

Authorities have yet to round up any of the animals and the number of death's related to these animals has risen to 49. Stay tuned for more information on the animal escapes and the precautions being taken.
