Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer
Penny Patch Produce & Garden Center had an intruder Monday morning.
It was actually a doe - a deer, a female deer - that ran across Fleming Drive and jumped through the store's front window.
"We've been here about 26 years, and we've had break-ins but never anything like this," said David Rakestraw, who owns the store with his brother.
He said the deer hit their cashier, Carol Stroupe, who is somewhere in her 60s, as it crashed through the window.
Stroupe was OK but a little bruised up. She went home early, but before she left, she told Rakestraw and his brother, Chris, she was going to tell her grandson, "Grandma got run over by a reindeer."
