A Long Island town agreed to a $20,000 settlement with the family of a girl who was injured by a rooster at a petting zoo in town, CBS New York reports via Newsday.
Kaylie Weiss received lacerations on her face from a rooster at the petting zoo in Smithtown’s Hoyt Farm Nature Preserve in 2011.
A judge still needs to sign off on the settle, which was approved by the Smithtown Town Board Tuesday night.
