(Hanover)- Hanover residents should report if they had any contact with a potentially rabid skunk in the last few days. The Chickahominy Health District says a skunk that was behaving strangely was recently collected in the area located on Pleasant Mill Road near Newfound River in Montpelier. The skunk was then tested for rabies. The results of this test were inconclusive but the Hanover Health Department is treating it as a rabid animal out of abundance of caution.
