A staff member at the Sterling Court retirement home in Deltona, Fla., called 911 on Thursday afternoon to report that several people had been attacked by a squirrel and needed immediate medical assistance.
（美國）佛羅里達州岱通納史特林巷退休之家的1名工作人員，週四午後打911報案，指稱有數人遭到1隻松鼠攻擊，需要立即醫療協助。
The squirrel bit someone sitting outside the building — and when the animal would not let go, the person ran into the activity room.
這隻松鼠咬了某個坐在該退休之家外的人－－松鼠一直咬著不肯鬆口，被咬的人就跑進退休之家的活動室。

據奧蘭多哨兵報報導，松鼠一進入室內就大抓狂。
"We had a squirrel that entered our building and it’s in our activity room and it’s jumping on people and biting them and scratching them," a woman told the dispatcher, according to audio from the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office. "So we need help."
「有1隻松鼠跑進我們的建築物裡，現在在我們的活動室裡跳到人身上亂咬亂抓，」根據沃魯西亞郡警長辦公室的錄音檔，1名女子如此告訴調度派遣人員，「所以我們需要幫助。」
Brian Fawkes, a spokesman for Holiday Retirement, the company that manages Sterling Court, told The Washington Post that a resident captured the squirrel and threw it out the door.
