WASHINGTON (AP) — There is no deer season in the nation’s capital. No hunting of any animal is allowed within the District of Columbia.
Police say that didn’t stop Vernon Goyne of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, from putting on camouflage and trying to bag a buck in a residential neighborhood of northwest Washington.
Scott Giacoppo with the Washington Humane Society says the 250-pound deer with 14-point antlers had to be euthanized.
