My parents bought the piranha ten years ago at the "Tricky Market" in Omsk, it was in an aquarium that stood in their house. Previously, there were no problems with fish.

"In the morning, the boy and his father were in the hall. A one-year-old child watched cartoons and ate cookies. In the same room, his father was playing on his phone. An aquarium with piranhas was also installed in the hall. At some point, a young boy stood on a toy car with his feet and dipped his right hand into the water of the aquarium, as a result of which the fish bit him on the finger of his right hand," the agency's interlocutor said.

The child was taken to the Kormilov Central District Hospital with a diagnosis of traumatic amputation of the main phalanx of the second finger of the right hand.

Doctors reported the fish bite to the police.

In August, a raccoon bit a girl at a petting zoo in St. Petersburg.
