Deer Leaps Through Window Into Worcester High School
WORCESTER (CBS) - Students at Doherty Memorial High School got a surprise Friday afternoon as they were leaving school. A deer leaped about 4 feet through a window and into the school's main office.
This happened shortly after school dismissal and students were already on their buses. Several of the students caught the action on video.
Worcester police said there was one staff member in the office and she was not injured. She was able to get out of the office and shut the door, containing the deer to the office.
No students were in the school at the time, but those who saw the incident were shocked.
"I thought it was a joke at first," said student Livia Duro.
"It was crazy because nothing like that's ever happened here at school," said student Nicole Canizares.
Unfortunately, the deer broke at least two legs and had to be euthanized.
A school district maintenance crew and environmental cleaners spent the night repairing the damage left by the wild animal.
