    Boar attacks 5 in Osaka, then barges into kindergarten

    OSAKA —

    A wild boar attacked five people Tuesday in Kashiwara, Osaka Prefecture, then barged into a kindergarten before being found dead later in a river, police said. The five attacked in the rampage were kindergarten employees and pedestrians. No children were hurt, police said.

     

    The boar came from a nearby mountain. It first hit a 53-year-old woman on a bicycle and then ran into the kindergarten. The boar smashed into the glass door of a staff room, injuring three employees with broken glass. “It scared the hell out of me,” said principal Koichi Kawahito. After exiting the school, the boar charged at a 55-year-old woman on the sidewalk. Three hours later, police found the animal dead in a nearby river. It was not clear how it had died, police said.

    That was a fun nite. Thanks for a great weekend, fattyboy, and thanks for the ride up Tsonda. It was great to see peeps I already knew and hadn't seen for ages, as well as meeting new SJ (and non SJ) folks. Fun to do my first ever real spring skiing, sliding around with the likes of Markie and Ewok.

     

    I had a leisurely day yesterday, took an onsen, stopped Hanna from gathering even more dust from the dead fire (to her annoyance) and meandered home in the late afternoon.
