“Someone was like ‘hey a fox is attacking that guy.''
“I didn’t see it and all of a sudden I felt something lunge at the back of my leg,” Bera told Caygle of the fox encounter. After he noticed the creature at his leg, he explained, he grabbed his umbrella and began waving it around to fend the creature off.
The fox eventually scurried away after Capitol Police arrived on the scene, and Bera said that an onlooker observed,"hey a fox is attacking that guy."Joking aside, animal bites are extremely serious. In the case of an encounter, please speak with a physician immediately:
