Washington family awarded $350,000 after otter attacks toddler
A Washington family received a $350,000 settlement from the Port of Bremerton after a river otter attacked their toddler and bit the mother during the rescue in 2024. The incident, which occurred at Bremerton Marina, involved the otter dragging the child underwater before the mother intervened. The case has been dismissed, with the port settling without admitting fault, according to KOIN 6.
