Sad story, pigs are awesome but can be very dangerous especially if they are uncut

TOWNSEND, Mass. —A 225-pound pig that attacked and seriously injured a man less than two hours after attacking a woman at a Massachusetts farm will be put down.

"I got him into the barn to lock him into his stall," Shannon Hernandez, 38, said. "He turned around and starting coming at me."

Townsend Police Chief Robert M. Eaton Jr. said his department was investigating "two very unfortunate farm incidents" in the town about 50 miles northwest of Boston.

Police and emergency responders were called to the farm Tuesday evening for a report of an injured woman.

"I need an ambulance. My husband is not home and my pig just literally attacked me," Shannon Hernandez told a 911 dispatcher.

"Your what?" the dispatcher asked.

"My pig," Shannon Hernandez repeated.

Shannon Hernandez suffered lacerations on her body from the pig attack. She was taken to a hospital for treatment. Shannon Hernandez said 'Boss' is usually more friendly. "You can rub his belly he'll roll over for you and everything else," Shannon Hernandez said.

"He broke out of his pen to get to the girls in heat," Shannon Hernandez said. "They can get edgy and aggressive when it comes to the females in heat. I got him into his barn to get him locked into his stall. He turned around and started coming at me."

Less than two hours later, rescuers were called to the same location for a report of a man who had received more serious injuries from the same animal.
