Chimp Attack Update -- Victim Could Die

21 March -- Latest Update -- Prior Warning Existed

Out of Ohio comes the sad news that Travis The Chimp's victim Charla Nash's survival is in doubt. Newly released details from the hospital reveal the attack left Nash suffering from a traumatic brain injury, along with her hands being torn off, and most of her face being savagely ripped off her skull.

In the latest release from the Cleveland Clinic, we learn "The full extent of these injuries and her potential for recovery, if any, remain unclear at this time." Nash lost her nose, upper and lower lips, eyelids and the bony structures in her mid-face in the attack. "While these wounds have been stabilized, critical issues still remain related to a significant traumatic brain injury and injuries to her eyes that threaten her vision," the Clinic's statement said.
