SOMERVILLE - A man was dive-bombed by hawks on the campus of Tufts University in Somerville on Friday, leaving him with scars to prove it. Mike Doherty was left with 15 stitches and cuts all across his head after the incident. Doherty said the hawk’s claws were as big as his hands and took turns dive-bombing his head repeatedly...Doherty was walking a path through Tufts when he was attacked by the hawks, dropping him to the ground. He says the attack lasted about two minutes before he was able to get away. The school has since added a barrier fence and posted signs warning of the hawks nesting above. The hawks built their nest into a fire escape onto the side of a building on campus. The school isn't sure just how long they've been there.
Hey buddy, I'm sure getting attacked sucked, but alerting the news media was the last thing you wanted to do. Everyone knows birds of prey attack when they sense weakness. Basically that hawk just gave you a big fuck you. It aint dive bombing formidable opponents who look like they can protect themselves. They feast on the weak, that hawk sized you up and made its determination...pussy.
