Fact or Fiction
This story is so odd that i'm going to let you decide if it's a new movie script or a news article based on some snippets:
...left the zoo without a solid explanation of how the 13-year-old gorilla got past walls 12 to 16 feet high with moats and electrified wires...
...In a tape of one 911 call released by authorities Monday, a zoo secretary calmly tells the operator that police are needed. In another call, Dallas resident Enrique DeLeon urgently requests help. "There's a gorilla loose, and it's going after people," he says frantically. "Are you serious?" the dispatcher asks. DeLeon responds, "I'm serious. I swear to God. I am not joking. There's people yelling. It's going after people. ... There's kids in here. Please. ... Please hurry up."...
...Cheryl Reichert, 39, trying to close a door to the aviary, but the gorilla forced it open and jumped on her..
... "He picked him up like a rag doll and then bit him in the head,"...
... She was yelling, 'Hurry up! Hurry up!' But I told her she needed to be quiet or the gorilla would come back up,"...
After they were pulled through the netting, a zoo employee armed with a fire extinguisher led them to a nearby barn,...
..."Unfortunately, the police encountered Jabari and he charged them, and they really had no choice," ...
