Gorilla Kills Young Boy at Ohio Zoo A young boy was fatally attacked by a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo on Saturday. The incident is being investigated, but authorities believe that the 4-year-old boy somehow climbed into the gorilla's enclosure, leading to the animal's death. The boy had been at the zoo with his mother and two younger siblings.
