Skunk

A skunk bit an Oro Valley woman on Tuesday, wildlife officials say.

The skunk may be rabid, according to the Arizona Game and Fish Department. The incident happened west of Catalina State Park.

The woman was treated at a hospital and released, Game and Fish said. The same skunk may have been seen again later in the day.
