An ambulance is requested to Route 19 and West Bergen Road where a member of local law enforcement has been bit by a raccoon.
The officer informed dispatch that if they receive calls of a gunshot in the area, it was him killing the raccoon.
A dispatcher asked, "you didn't shoot it in the head did you?"
Officer: "I don't think so."
The raccoon will need to be checked for rabies.
UPDATE 10:53 p.m.: The animal is being transported to the shelter.
