Moose on the Loose! in Fonda N.Y.

[Hickory Hill Hoff]

A large moose was spotted wandering the area of Rt.334 last evening one mile from my home and the village of Fonda N.Y. As of 7am this morning he or she was seen in downtown Fonda with at least 100 onlookers chasing him between Main St. and the Mohawk River. It's the first time in recent memory that such an animal was seen in the village. More excitement continues later on in the morning with the demolition of the old county jail about a half mile where the moose was spotted. Who says there's no excitement in the Mohawk Valley!
