Someone called 911 on Thursday to report the man screaming, according to the Mukilteo police blotter.
Officers found the man walking, dragging the dead raccoon on a leash. When they approached the man, he placed marshmallows around the animal and declared it a “haz mat” or hazardous materials zone.
The raccoon was taken to a local shelter for disposal. The man was last seen getting on the bus.

What a responsible pet owner! I love the marshmallow haz-mat boundary, I think we should use marshmallows in far more civic features and warnings.
Heh heh!
There's absolutely no doubt that marshmallows are an underused important resource.
Ah, now I see.
The headline had me thinking that it must take thousands and thousands of marshmallows to surround a bus !
Pedant! ;)
But yes, it does read a bit like that.
