At 10 p.m. on July 17, Animal Control Officer Kim England searches between townhouses in Centreville for a suspected rabid skunk. A woman called animal control when chased by a skunk while she was returning her garbage can to her rear door. Because this behavior is very unusual for a skunk, England suspects the skunk may be in the “furious’” phase of rabies, so she carries her .22 rifle in anticipation of euthanizing the rabid animal.
