SHIPPENSBURG — A Shippensburg Police officer recently gave a squirrel a second chance at life.
In response to a call from a concerned citizen, Officer Thomas Young reported to Oak Lane April 15 and rescued a squirrel from a metal trap. The squirrel had its leg stuck in the trap and was dragging it along.
The squirrel scurried up a tree after Young released it from the trap.
There were no tags on the trap identifying the owner.
