Deer pays startling visit to New York homeowner

STRYKERSVILLE, N.Y. (AP) — A western New York homeowner says she awoke to find an unwelcome visitor in her living room — a deer.

Wyoming County Sheriff Deputy Matthew Sage responded to the homeowner’s call earlier this week. He tells The Buffalo News (http://bit.ly/1t8ZD0O ) the young buck had crashed through a window and was standing near a couch when he arrived at the rural Strykersville home Monday morning.

Before Sage could get inside the house, the deer jumped out through another window and trotted off into the woods.

He says the animal appeared to be uninjured.
