A crazed west county deer was found dead in the middle of the street in downtown StL. It was promptly moved by the police before being discovered by the police the next day while investigating a shooting.

Whaaaaaa?

I don't make this E36 M3 up.

I've seen some weird E36 M3 downtown, but if I saw a deer skipping around downtown, I'd probably assume I was hallucinating.

Strap it in a Jeep and park it in a train crossing.

Welcome to Missouri: The Show-Me State. If you don't show us, we'll strap you in a jeep on railroad tracks, shoot you in the face, leave you in the street where the police will move you to the sidewalk and investigate you the next day when they find you.

A ghost train full of St Louis style baby back rib sauce would rock.

This deer sausage is delicious by the way. Seriously.

Deer and other animals can find their way into large cities by following train tracks or creeks, while it's unusual it's not unheard of. A deer showed up in my neighborhood (inner city Minneapolis) a few years ago and was running around in the middle of a major intersection.

I damn near clipped one coming down 35E in Eagan...... (it's a suburb of St. Paul). This joker had somehow lept the jersey barriers on BOTH SIDES of the northbound lane, and was wandering around the southbound side like an idiot. I didn't know Ford Escapes could handle that well. I've also seen then battle in my parking lot of my apartment building. That amused me greatly.

then darted through the Mansion House parking garage. It was soon found dead along Memorial Drive.

Wait..what? I was parked in the Mansion House parking garage Friday night - the Excursion was too tall to park in the Hyatt lot. I saw no deer on that fateful night, but i did see ManBearPig.

Mr. Sperlo, please keep me informed of events as they develop.
