DELAWARE, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio sheriff’s department says a
woman has been struck by a pet llama that was trying to greet her and
has died.
A report by the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office says
former coroner Florence Lenahan apparently had a heart attack as she was
being taken to a hospital.
The report says the 74-year-old
Lenahan called for help Tuesday after a llama named Baby Doll slipped on
wet grass while running to greet her and knocked her down, causing her
to hit her head on concrete. It says there’s no evidence the llama was
acting maliciously.
Lenahan’s family is working with the Delaware County Humane Society to find homes for the animals on her
property.
