POCAHONTAS, Va. — Residents living midway between Pocahontas and Bramwell are asking the Department of Natural Resources to investigate a grisly discovery.
About eight deer carcasses have been located on the hill just between the Coopers community and the Bramwell town limits, Tommy Childress, a resident of Pocahontas, said.
“There are eight deer carcasses thrown over the hill and on the side of the road where people have been spotlighting on Route 120 between Bramwell and Pocahontas,” Childress said.
