An owl spreads panic in the Netherlands

It's a story worthy of a Hitchcock movie. An eagle owl spreads panic in the small town of Purmerend, north of the Netherlands. Since the beginning of the month, the raptor has already attacked a dozen people with its sharp claws.

Children think they have identified the culprit: '' I just saw it on a roof, I hear, '' said the girl.

This man recounts his encounter with the animal: '' He attacked the back of my head with his eight claws. It's like taking a brick with nails on the head. ''

To protect the animal, authorities recommend that people go out at night with umbrellas. The latest attack occurred Tuesday night. The raptor rushed on two athletes who were training outdoors.

Who will be the next victim of the eagle owl? To be continued ...
