Piping The Truth Into Your Brainballs!
Story published on February 7, 2010
A baby boy left sleeping in his pram outside a Copenhagen apartment block was bitten on the face by rats this week.
The boy was left sleeping in his pram in the courtyard of an apartment complex in the centre of Copenhagen on Wednesday evening. Apparently this is common behaviour in Denmark, despite the cold and other obvious dangers. As soon as the parents discovered the baby’s injuries they called an ambulance and the toddler was rushed to hospital for emergency treatment.
The boy’s father later told reporters from Denmark’s Ekstra Bladet newspaper that the youngster had been bitten by rats on the face, close to his eye. Other residents from the apartment complex also told the reporters that there was a current vermin problem as dozens of rats try to escape the harsh winter conditions looking for somewhere warm to hide.
Rats are known to attack babies, and they will go for the soft tissue areas such as the eyes. There have been more than one case of death caused by rats eating babies.
