Police are investigating a fox attack on a one-month-old baby boy which left his hand seriously injured.

The animal tore the infant's finger off after dragging him from his cot after entering his bedroom in Bromley, south-east London, according to reports.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "We were called at 1638 on Wednesday 6 February by staff at St Thomas's Hospital to reports a baby boy who had been admitted to hospital after being attacked by a fox.

"Police attended to find a four-week-old baby with a hand injury.

"The baby was admitted to hospital after the attack at its home address in Bromley.

The child's mother was alerted by his screaming and rushed into his room to see his hand lodged "halfway down the animal's throat", the Mail on Sunday said.

Surgeons were able to reattach the baby's finger and he was said to be recovering well.

What a frightful sight to confront the mother :eek: The little baby crying out didn't deter the fox; you would've thought it would have. The foxes are becoming more daring because a lot of people are feeding them and leave food in their gardens at night, like one of my neighbors has been doin for years now and when you arrive home late at night it is not unusual for a fox to be sniffing round the gardens/road looking for food.
