Dead Man Mistaken For Deer Left Along Highway For Days

<snip>

FRANKLIN, Pa. -- Pennsylvania police say a man who died after being struck by a vehicle may have been left on a roadside for days because his body was apparently mistaken for a dead deer.

Police say the man was found on Monday by a motorist, who at first thought the man was a deer because of tan clothing and snow that covered part of his body.

The motorist realized the man wasn't a deer after noticing his shoes.

Authorities believe that many others drove past the body, assuming it was a deer.

Police say the man was a passenger in a vehicle that wrecked last Friday.

Police say he'd been walking along the road when he was hit and killed by another vehicle.

that deer do not wear shoes!

you specialize in the weird, don't you?

So I guess that would make him Deer Lee DeParted.

:rofl:

Is it wrong to laugh at your own joke?

of the road at times and they are pretty big. If he was covered in some snow and wearing tan clothing, it makes sense to me. Somebody knew it wasn't a deer. The person who hit him, unless of course, he thought it was a deer too! :crazy:

It is a tragedy though. I feel for the man and his family (if he has any)

The shoes always give you away though.
