"It’s jumping on people and biting them and scratching them," the caller said in the 911 recording from around 2 p.m. Thursday. "It's still in there and people are bleeding."
In the commotion in the facility's activity room, people can be heard in distress. "I feel light-headed. I don’t feel good," one woman can be heard saying.
Asked if she believed they needed an ambulance, the caller told dispatchers: "I don’t know if we need an ambulance, but we need some care for people here."
Eventually, someone was able to fling the creature outside the building.
By the end, at least three people had been attacked by the squirrel, ClickOrlando reports.
