Officers responded to a call from a female at about 8:40 a.m. March 10 at the intersection who had found two dead skunks, one of which appeared to be hung by a noose, according to a Fairfield Police press release.
"The first skunk was found with heavy string wrapped around its neck and was nailed to the pole about 4 feet from the ground," the press release said. The other was at the base of the pole.
Also found on the SNET pole was a laminated sign that read "Obama Stinks," and an American flag with a hammer and cycle symbol in place of the stars, police said.
At this time Fairfield Police are investigating the incident, and more information will be provided when available.
Anyone with information on the Tuesday morning incident can call 203-254-4800.
