SARASOTA (CBSMiami) – Residents in eastern Sarasota are on guard this week.

An aggressive squirrel has continuously terrorized a neighborhood, causing residents to act in an extreme abundance of caution.

The offending rodent has gone after four people, using its claws and teeth to injure his victims.
