PERU, 111. (AP)-For little Pa-,
tricia Kenney the exciting trip to
see the clumsy circus elephants
turned into a moment of pain and
and horror as a snarling leopard
swiped out with a paw and
dragged the screaming girl to its
barred cage.
I just saw this paw come out
and catch the little girl," related
.Mrs. Joseph Fitzgerald, who took
Patricia. 6. and seven of her
chums to the circus grounds Tuesday.
"Then I heard her scream. It
was terrible. That awful cat could
have got any of them."
Patricia, daughter of Mr. and
.Mrs. Francis Kenney of nearby
Utica, was reported in serious
condition in a Peru hospital. Sixty
stitches were required to close
fang wounds in her leg.
Airs, fitzgerald told this story:
She was driving her son Thom
as, 8, Patricia and six other
neighborhood children home from
swimming lesson when they de
cided to stop at a circus spon
sored by the Peru American Legion.
The kids wanted to see the
elephants and walk through an
unused circus ring surrounded by
high canvas wall, she said.
Mrs. Fitzgerald said that while
she drove the car to the other side
of the ring the children stopped to
gaze at a cage with eight leop
ards. She returned in time to
witness the attack.
"There were no ropes or any
body around the cage when the
kids walked up to it. I just saw
this paw come out and catch the
little girl. Then I heard her
scream. It was terrible. 1 froze.
The other children were crying.
'The thing tore her shoe off.
She was conscious all the time. A
man came running when he heard
Patricia scream, but he had to
run 300 feet. He tried to beat the
cats off from outside the cage, but
couldn't. Then another man ran
up, went inside the cage and drove
the cats away by beating them
over the head with a chair.
Police later identified the first
man as Jack Mann, an attendant
Animal trainer Jack Harkness en
tered the cage and fended off the
beasts.
Police said Joe Cuno, owner of
the animal act, insisted that ropes
had been strung around the cage
to keep the public away.
Any child would have gone
close to look," said Mrs. Fitzger
ald. "It could have gotten any
one of them."
