No, healthy raccoons are generally wary around humans and try to avoid confrontations. If the animal is ill, with rabies or distemper, they may not be in a right mind and could, potentially, attack. Also, if the animal is accustomed to being fed by humans it may have lost its fear and is chasing a person because they are looking for food.

Raccoons will generally avoid confrontations with humans but if humans seem to pose a threat, a raccoon will defend itself and can seriously injure a person.

If a raccoon has been accustomed to being fed by humans, it might approach a person if it believes that person has food. This is why one should never feed wildlife.
