SkunkProvesln Usual Way He's Not Family Pet DENVER (PI Mrs. William Bradford called police Monday and complained a skunk was loose In her back yard. Patrolman Edward B.

And when the intruder . reappeared two hours ' later at the home of William Phelps a block down the street, the patrolman didn't waste any more time. He shot the skunk.
