Flashback: Unlucky Deer at Go-Mart

On January 26, 2006, as I was walking from the Prosecutor's office to the Webster Courthouse on Church Street, the whitetail deer in the above picture was spooked by a car driving up the street. The deer proceeded to jump over the fence near the sidewalk and onto the roof of the Go-Mart station. It then made the unwise decision to leap off the roof into the Go-Mart parking lot, breaking three of its four legs in the process. I took this picture and sent it to the Webster Echo. The Echo printed the picture with one of their best headlines.  If I recall correctly, it read: "Deer Finds Go-Mart Inconvenient". City officer Paul Williams later took the deer out of the way and put it out of its misery.
