WaPo Describes Deer Entering Eatery, Grocery Store as 'Rampage'
The Washington Post has a story online about a deer that had to be put to sleep yesterday in Silver Spring. The deer, it seems, had been being chased by a dog, and in its efforts to flee, it first crashed through the front window of Greek Village Restaurant, and then later made its way peacefully inside a Giant Food grocery store, entering through the automatic door. The injured animal was eventually put to sleep once it was captured by animal control. The Post's headline? "Deer Rampage Ends in Silver Spring Supermarket." In the story itself, the frightened deer is alleged to have "ransacked" the greek restaurant, which would seem to mean that the Post believes this deer conducted a thorough inventory of the eatery and then robbed it. We're sure it was startling for patrons inside the restaurant, but "rampage" and "ransacked"? This is a deer we're talking about, right?
