Gorilla warfare in Dallas today.
DALLAS - Police shot and killed a gorilla that escaped from its enclosure at the Dallas Zoo on Thursday and injured three people.

One adult and two children, ages 10 and 2, suffered minor injuries from the gorilla and were taken to area hospitals, Deputy Police Chief Daniel Garcia said. He said the three were bitten and scratched.

The zoo was evacuated after the animal escaped and police were notified. When the gorilla charged two officers, getting within 15 feet of them, they opened fire, Garcia said.

"We were forced to put this animal down," he said.
I hate zoos. If, though no fault of your own, you were forced to live in Dallas against your will, you'd probably charge a cop if you ever got out of your 8 by 8 cage, too.
