Dressed Up Dead Fawn Left Near Theater
TACOMA, Wash. (May 10) - The police log entry said it all: "Deceased fawn was dressed up like an infant and abandoned at the Pantages" Theater. Why would anyone dress up a dead newborn deer, lay it in a basket and leave it outside an ornate downtown landmark?
"Your guess is as good as mine," said Tom Sayre, a spokesman of The Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County.
The outfit included an infant sleeper and a bib that read, "You think I'm cute? You should see my aunt," Sayre added.
An officer found the fawn Tuesday night, said police spokesman Mark Fulghum.
