A 103-year-old Michigan woman was hurt this week when a deer broke through her bedroom window while she was in bed.
Shocking body camera footage shows two officers breaking the glass of a resident’s living room patio door on Monday evening to allow a “beaten” deer to escape back into the woods after the incident.
Officers with the Blackman-Leoni Department of Public Safety responded to the resident’s home after staff at the Arbor North Living facility in Blackman Township reported that a deer had entered the apartment, and they were unable to check on the resident.
Officers Luke Bradley and Ryan Martin first spotted the deer in the living room near the patio door across the apartment’s hallway and blood in the apartment indicated it was “scrambling around in an attempt to escape.”
In the officer’s video, the deer can be seen wandering inside the living room and looking out the patio window before attacking with full force in an attempt to get out.
Once the officer breaks the glass with his baton, the deer quickly runs away into the forest.
Officers found the resident, who was conscious and alert. He was taken to the emergency room with non-life-threatening injuries, the Blackman-Leoni Department of Public Safety said in a release.
Officials could not locate the deer.
