CIT bosses in a flap after spate of crow attacks

College bosses are in a flap after a spate of vicious crow attacks on campus grounds.

It’s not quite as gory as Hitchcock’s 1963-film horror The Birds, but up to 20 people working or studying at Cork Institute of Technology (CIT) have reported being attacked by a lone crow in recent days.

Two of the aerial attack victims required medical treatment from CIT’s on-campus medical centre, where nursing staff administered tetanus jabs and prescribed antibiotics.
