Little boy, 6, is viciously attacked by apex predator while supporting his sister's softball team
[Daily MIl, where America gets its news] A young California boy was at his big sister's softball game when he was repeatedly bitten by a coyote that tried to drag him away.
On Monday night, six-year-old Enoch Palomar was with his family at Del Amo Park in Carson, where he split time between the playground and watching his sister play.
Midway through the game, Enoch was heard screaming as the coyote chased after him. A portion of the attack was recorded by a parent who was filming the game.
'It just kept biting me and I was trying to kick it,' Enoch told KTLA three days after the fact. 'It was too fast and it just jumped. I was trying my hardest and then it didn't work, and then I yelled.'
His mother, Melissa Palomar, ran over to her son and scared the coyote off, but not before it was able to bite him in multiple places.
'I was like, "Get up, get up!" I was just hysterical,' she said.
After the attack, the coyote was seen running away across the field.
Enoch needed 20 stiches for bites on his legs. He was also bitten on his head and back. As a precaution, he was also given rabies shots.
