Bambi and friends raid Fire Barn ![]() Assistant Fire Chief Curtis Shields and Councilman-at-Large Jack VanTrump look on as the last deer makes its way out of the Fire Barn. (Democrat photo by Frank W. Mercer) My question is how many calls did the one dispatch, or the other one make for the police department, and if the 3rd put out any fires. The humerous side, and thankfulness that no one was injured. This story is only an excerpt. |
Bambi and friends raid Fire
Barn BY MIKE K. JOHNSON Six deer had been enjoying a leisurely Sunday afternoon stroll up the middle of Monroe Street when a noise scared them. Three darted into the Carroll County Trust parking lot while the other three wrecked havoc in the fire station. All three deer went into the open bay of the fire barn. One ran down the stairs and into the dispatcher's office, another ran down the stairs to the police department and the other went into the corner of the bay of the fire barn. As the deer made their entrance at about 6:30 PM, the firemen, who had been washing the truck, briefly stared in disbelief before hurrying into action in an attempt to keep damage at a minimum, with no animal or human injury.
