The public is asked to refrain from looking for Jax, the dog that was ejected from an auto accident on the westbound Causeway Bridge Monday.

Stafford Township Animal Control, through the Stafford Police Department, issued the following statement Tuesday:

“Efforts are being made to secure the dog safely. Jax was sighted today and appears to be uninjured. We are asking the public not to intervene at this time in attempting to rescue or secure the dog.

“When dogs go missing, they experience fight or flight, and right now, Jax is in flight mode.
