SYDNEY: A kangaroo attacked and injured a 69-year-old woman on a golf course in Australia’s Gold Coast, leaving her with severe cuts and scratches across her body.

It attacked the woman without warning while she was playing golf, knocking her to the ground and repeatedly kicking and stomping on her, said Queensland state Ambulance Operations Supervisor Joel McEwan.
