A dead bear was found on the side of Interstate 395 in Arlington, Virginia, Saturday afternoon after it was struck by a vehicle.

Virginia State Police said it received a report that someone saw a bear on the side of the roadway in the northbound lanes near the Crystal City exit around 2 p.m.

Authorities later got a call around 6 p.m. from a man who said he hit the bear with his vehicle, “but did not stop because he was feeling ill.” The man wasn’t injured in the crash, police said.

A state trooper said the bear was dead on arrival and Arlington County Animal Control removed it from the roadway.

A young black bear was reported seen a week ago in the Rivercrest and Bellevue Forest neighborhoods of Arlington County, located northwest of Potomac Overlook Regional Park.

Two weeks ago, a dead black bear was found in a large plastic bag on a trail in Arlington County.
