A couple of North Bay Police officers dealt with an unusual situation early Monday… helping out a skunk.

Constable Sarah Kavanagh and Constable Jennifer Dix were on patrol when they spotted the skunk trying to get a cup off of it’s head.

Kavanagh can be heard in the video saying, “Seriously, I would pull it off it’s face if I didn’t think it would spray me.”

She asks Dix, “Do you think it’s going to spray though?”

Constable Dix replies, “No, I think it’s going to love you, I think it’s going to thank you and run away.”

After a few moments, Constable Kavanagh successfully (and bravely) removed the cup then dashed away from the live animal.
