CLINTON -- The moose that “fell from the sky,” in an observer’s words, landed on its head and quickly died.
The yearling bull nearly took a man with him after it fell from the Interstate 95 overpass onto Hinckley Road.
Shirley Bailey, assistant town clerk, got the frantic call shortly after 8 a.m.
The caller was driving along the road when he saw the moose fall.
Bailey recalled his comments: “I was driving under the bridge on Hinckley Road and a moose fell from the sky.”
The man was “a little shook up,” Bailey said. “It was quite frightening, I guess.”
Minutes later, the Waldo County Sheriff’s Department took a call of a young bull moose on I-95, not far away in Burnham.
