Chesapeake, Virginia cops are investigating after the body of an unidentified male bearing gunshot wounds was found by a hiker in the Great Dismal Swamp on Sunday, the Virginian-Pilot reports.
No further details were reported on the dismal story out of the vast swampland stretching across Virginia and North Carolina’s borders. It’s not clear when the last time there was any truly great news about the area worthy of national media coverage. The Virginian-Pilot put an annoying paywall up on a May 2024 story about the black bear population of the swamp growing.
