DEC’s weekly
Environmental Conservation Police on Patrol press release:
Hawk in the Deli
– Lewis County
On Jan. 7, a Sergeant with the Lewis County Sherriff’s Office contacted ECO
Kraeger to report a hawk trapped in the deli of a local grocery store in
the town of Lowville. Officer Kraeger responded to the store and observed
employees guarding the entrance to the deli area. The manager advised the
bird flew into the grocery store through the front
entrance sliding door and ended up in the deli. ECO Kraeger located the
hawk perched on a shelf in a storage area, safely captured it, and then
released the bird a short distance from the store where it flew off
successfully.
