The 9-1-1 call was horrific! It made me sick to my stomache!
The link to the 9-1-1 call is on that link I provided previously. But, just wow...you can even hear the police shoot the chimpanzee in the background.

STAMFORD, Conn. -- The pet chimpanzee, named Travis, attacked 55-year-old Charla Nash at its Rockrimmon Road home Monday afternoon after it got out of the house.
“The animal is so intelligent, he grabbed the keys, unlocked the kitchen door to allow itself out," Stamford Police Capt. Richard Conklin said.
Nash was coming with an orange toy to help Travis' 70-year-old owner, Sandra Herold, calm the animal, who police said had been agitated all day.
Herold gave the chimp tea laced with Xanax in an attempt to calm him. When that didn't work, police said Herold called for Nash's help.
Police said Travis violently attacked Nash as she exited her vehicle. They called the attack "lengthy and vicious."
Herold called 911 and went to help her friend. Police said she stabbed Travis, whom they said she raised like a child, several times with a kitchen knife before police arrived. Police said Herold also tried hitting Travis with a shovel in an attempt to get him to stop attacking Nash.
“She ran to the kitchen, grabbed a butcher knife and stabbed her chimp," Conklin said.
Police said Travis can be heard screaming during Herold's 911 call.
Police said Travis then ran over to police cruisers and broke a mirror off one of the vehicles before opening a cruiser door. Stamford police said the chimp moved as though he was going to attack the officer, prompting the officer to shoot the animal in the chest at close range.
Travis then ran off, and police said officers following the blood trail found him dead in his living quarters inside the home.
Nash was transported to Stamford Hospital with life-threatening and "life-changing injuries," police said. Neighbors told Eyewitness News that the chimp bit the woman's hands off.
"He bit both of her hands off," said Herold's friend, Lynn Mecca. "The cop said he was eating … it’s terrible. I don’t want to talk about it."
“I would have never thought Travis was capable of doing this. I don't think anybody was," said Michael Grant, who’s known Herold for years. “Last time I saw Travis, he was in one of the upstairs windows giving monkey cries in the neighborhood. You'd think you were in Africa."
Police said Herold was also taken to the hospital with unknown injuries. The officer whom the chimp lunged at was transported to the hospital for shock and trauma treatment, police said. The officer has since been treated and released.

That poor chimp is just crying out for attention it needs a father. MiamiHeat?
The owner thought he needed Xanax and gave it to him...
It must have been very bad. The chimp bit off her friends hands, ripped off her face and an officer had to be treated for shock and trauma.
I feel so bad. What a situation! She keeps on saying that the chimp ripped her friend apart and she thinks she's dead...she keeps asking for help and telling the police to hurry.
She cries at one point," They have to have thier guns out. Listen to me!!!"
When asked how old her friend is. She says," She's dead.." (It sounds as if she's puking and is about to faint.)
Much later, you can hear the gunshots as the police shoot her chimp...She starts crying uncontrollably....and it sounds as if she's hyperventillating...
During the 9-1-1 call, you can hear a policeman call for an ambulance because "the woman didnt have a face..."
The 200 pound Chimp ripped it off...
(Supposedly, during the attack, the owner tried to help her friend and stabbed her chimp several times...)
I am sure somewhere in Africa a man is ripping the face off a Gorilla so it all evens out.
Young soldiers in Iraq are getting their heads blown off every day and yet that doesn't make the news, and the sad part is you all don't really seem to give a .
That's some serious monkey business.
That chimp really went ape .
This story is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
That's what happens when you don't hail to the chimp. </Homer>
Really?
My brother is enlisted in the Army and he was deployed to Iraq 3 times! THREE!
I also have two brother-in-laws; one of them was deployed to Iraq once and the other is going pretty soon and for the first time.
Of course people care! And I know how bad it is over there because I've heard the countless stories.
But, this is about a damn chimp....What does our military have to do with this?
