| Simmonsville, CO.- At an unknown time, but before 6:00 A.M., which is Fluffy's dinner time, Fluffy the Chipmunk escape from Weldon Zoo. Fluffy had been a resident of the zoo for almost two years entertaining millions of people who passed through the area and stopped at the zoo. Chipmunks, although not incredibally rare, are just so cute and furry that no one expected what happened that day, November 21, 2001. At 6:13 A.M. Mrs. Bilsmith was ready for work, and left her house to head for her vehicle, when she noticed something was not right. She heard some slight wimpering and could see that her fence had been damaged. She looked over to see what had hit it and saw her next door neigbor, Mr. Moawad, lying on the ground in his own blood. A few seconds later, Mrs. Bilsmith was attacked by fluffy, although she is alive, she is in very critical condition. Fluffy aparently had studied the vital points of a human being and |
| could cause serious wounds with his little nutcracking teeth. This is the first time in many years a critter escaped from the zoo. "We hardly ever have any of this," stated Mr. Randon, "Last time a creature escaped from here was, well two days ago, but before that, we hadn't had any escapees since the 1973 mauling involving Spot, the only carnivorous giraffe, who mauled those 8 pedestrians before being struck by a bee in the eye, allowing us to put the saftey net over Spot, and return him safely to the zoo." After talking to one of the zoo attendents, we decided that it was purely a mishap, "No one had seen any violent behavior in Fluffy, aside from the time that he went into the lions caged and began devouring their meat before they could, other then that Fluffy seemed relatively harmless. Oh he did once eat 4 attendents who were trying to bring him his pillow, but we figured they had just been teasing him. We all know how cranky those chipmunks get if they don't get their pillows." stated Jim Walters, cage cleaner for most animals. |

| Not all families made it through alright, here is the Snosnhoj's. Husband Rick's arms were eaten, little Jimmy's upper torso has yet to be found, believed to be stored away for the winter, and Wife Janet is in critical condition, missing her head. |
| Mr. Moawad's wife Shaniqua came out at this time, and noticed the two laying there, and knew at first they were dead. Fearing for her own life, she ran inside, and phoned the police. After the police were aware of the situation, and unsure if there was still a threat, they proceeded to the house speedily, and arrived at 7:35 A.M. Upon searching the area they found no suspect, nor any clues. They rang the doorbell, and recieved no answer, so kicked in the door and stormed the room. Officer Jelbo was the first to spot Mrs. Moawad, and shouted for backup. He ran to the downed victim, and searched all his blind spots but spied no one, so proceeded to check if Shaniqua was alive. Upon realizing she was too far gone he turned to have a search around the perimiter again. A quick look toward the light saved Officer Jelbo's life as the chipmunk lept down and bore his fangs into his shoulder, tearing off Jelbo's arm. Jelbo is now fine although he is missing one arm. "I looked all over and swore I saw nothing out of no ordinary," spoke Jelbo, longtime officer on the force. "After me being on this force for some 30 something years, you would not have to figure that I would not have not missed no cute chipmunk like that. I figure that I would not have to not look so hard after not missing a single person not hiding in no pantry." Most police said similar things about Jelbo. |
| After this attack the chipmunk vanished, striking again later halfway across town. Fluffy was eventually acertained by the zoo and will be held for questioning. If no answers as to how Fluffy got out or why Fluffy did this, Fluffy will be put in a closed area and study under heavy watch. The zoo has vowed that they will find out why cute little snuggly Fluffy did this. "Ve must be finding out vhy dis cute vittle chipmunk did go crazy and begun attacking des innocent peoples. Ve cannot have des creatures running around just mutilating hooever dey vish to. Humans cannot do dis, and so ve vill not allow de animal kingdom to either." spoke Dr. Vorganhauvsky. "Ve vill find vat is causing dis." Fluffy refused to comment on the situation. |
