Leaving deer to suffer was callous, reckless

| September 9, 2009 9:00 PM

To the reckless, careless woman, who on the evening of Aug. 27, hit a deer on Spades Road. You not only injured a beautiful creature, you callously drove off, leaving her to suffer and die in the road. I saw what you did. Shame on you.

Yes, deer get hit. However, deer don’t have reason or drive cars. Humans do. A responsible person is watchful when driving and would have reported the incident and stayed at the scene, under the circumstances, until the deputy arrived.

Thank you, Bonner County Dispatch and to the deputy who came out and humanely ended the deer’s suffering.
