MAGGIE VALLEY — Wildlife officials are asking for the public's help in finding the person who shot and killed a bald eagle.

The full-grown but immature bird was found shot May 4 at the Maggie Valley Festival Grounds on Soco Road.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission are offering a $2,500 reward for information leading to the conviction of the person responsible for killing the bird. The Humane Society is also offering a $2,500 reward.
