An aggressive and possible rabid ground hog was reported Sunday afternoon on Colonial Terrace.
Later that afternoon a resident of DeHart Rd. was scratched or bitten by a ground hog. This is highly unusual activity by an animal that usually avoids people and rabies is suspected.
The Maplewood Health Department is requesting that any person who sees a strange acting ground hog or finds one dead in this area of town to immediately call the Maplewood Police and the Maplewood Health Department.
If the ground hog can be found soon, we will test it for rabies.
