What do you think about this news?

Squirrel Attack (Source)

In New York, an officer’s body cam captured the moment that a squirrel lunged itself at the officer. The police dispatched two officers to a home after its residents called that a squirrel had broken in and was eating their cookies.

After the dramatic attack, a cause of much hilarity on the policemen’s behalf, the squirrel made a break for the window.

Difficult words: lunge (move quickly forward to attack), dispatch (to send someone somewhere), hilarity (amusement).
