A sick raccoon believed to be about three years old jumped from a garbage truck into the John Varvatos store in Soho Saturday afternoon. Customers were evacuated while amused employees took pictures of it. "He was trying to hang on to the [security] camera like it was a tree," the store manager said. "He didn't want to go." Eventually, animal control managed to coax the raccoon out of the store. They were forced to euthanize him since he was clearly sick and having seizures. [NYDN]
