North Carolina Woman Trampled By Whitetail Does

By Dave Hurteau

From the Rocky Mount Telegram:
Michelle Brewer, the 46-year-old co-owner of Brewer’s Fine Jewelry in Tarboro, was flipped up in the air and trampled in front of her Main Street storefront last week by a group of renegade deer. . . .

Witnesses, including her husband, Kenny, later told Brewer the herd of seven to nine “good-sized does” must have been running at least 40 mph. . . .

“I don’t remember being hit,” Brewer said. “My husband and the guys over at the barber shop said I went airborne – flipping me probably three feet up in the air – and I landed on my face.”

I'm from that town. I've never seen deer that far in the city limits, but maybe I should ask the town council if I can put up a small ground blind on Main St...
