Widow lives with rats
A petite, grey-haired widow is living in Miami in apparent harmony with a house full of scurrying rats “You can see dozens of them from the windows.' says a neighbour. “Tails hanging out all over. Rat beads sticking out.” The police say she turned them away with a shout of, “I don't need your help,” and is doing nothing wrong. She will be left alone as long athe rats stay home and create no public health hazard. — Miami.
