Several residents by Plymouth Street and School Street in the Tudor section of West Hempstead have spotted a Raccoon appearing sickly walking in yards. We have also heard of other multiple sightings around town. Please be extra careful while walking in that area, especially with children.
Raccoons are wild and should never be approached outside of professionals. Call your local pest control company to remove the animals.
