An upstate New York woman was viciously attacked from behind by a rabies -infected fox that was seen on security video repeatedly lunging and biting at her.

The woman, who wasnt identified, sought medical attention immediately and was OK after the July 25 attack outside her Ithaca home, according to her cousin, WHP-TV meteorologist Ed Russo, who shared the security footage that has since gone viral.

A cousin of mine was attacked by a rabid fox in Ithaca, NY, Russo wrote Tuesday in a since-deleted tweet. Shes OK. But geez this video is crazy!
