"We don't want to alarm residents in the Apex area, but they should be aware of this case and of the potential for exposure to themselves, family members and their pets," said Michael Williams, Animal Control director for Wake County.
Animal Control officers say they are concerned about possible exposure of unvaccinated animals, particularly pets, in the area.
Anyone who sees an animal acting in an unusual manner is urged to call Wake County Animal Control at (919) 856-6911.
