In Michigan dead animals on the road are very common, but one thing you don't expect to see is that dead animal get painted over by a road crew, that's what happened earlier this week in Grand Rapids.
A suspicious situation with a skunk on Grand Rapids' southeast side lead investigators to recover what they believe to be a gun used in the 2021 murder of a Grand Rapids teenager.
Skunks sure can be cute, but those things are also pretty devastating when they want to be. That's why everyone is a little cautious when one of the black and white critters makes their presence known.
