News Release

********************

At approximately 5:30 AM this morning (May 31) Cst. Scott McFarlane of the North Bay Police Service was attempting to guide a young bull moose away from the area of Fisher St. and Chippewa St.

It appears the animal did not take kindly to this gesture and turned and challenged the cruiser. The officer retreated and let the animal move off at it’s own pace.

Also during the early morning hours there was a sighting of a cow and calf moose near Sandy Cove Marina on highway 11 North of the city. The public is cautioned to be alert to wild animals in and around the city roads and highways at this time of the year.
