AP story from Virginia:
ROANOKE, Va. (AP) - Bleeding from three bites and wearing only the housecoat she had on to retrieve her newspaper, an 85-year-old woman upended an attacking, rabies-crazed cat in the street in front of her home and, with her hand tight around its tail, beat the feline into submission against a nearby utility pole.She "beat the feline into submission against a nearby utility pole." Those are words you don't hear strung together very often.
Isabelle Blankenship said turning the black and white stray cat into a club and "beating the devil out of it" was what saved her from further injury Friday morning in a bizarre assault in front of stunned neighbors.
Authorities said Monday that an examination of the deceased animal revealed the presence of rabies.

Blogger has been known to screw up like that. Hasn't happened to comments for a long time, though.
