Deer crashes through windshield of US bus, runs around, jumps on seats and then gets let off

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – A deer has taken a ride on a Pennsylvania bus.

The Johnstown Tribune-Democrat newspaper reports the white-tailed deer crashed through the windshield of a public bus being driven Tuesday evening in Johnstown, about 65 miles (105 kilometres) east of Pittsburgh.

The deer hopped around frantically near the driver before jumping on empty seats and running in circles in the aisle.

Authorities say the driver stopped the bus and opened the door and the deer got off. County transportation spokesman Josh Yoder says it “just walked off the bus.”

The bus was carrying one passenger, who was seated in the back far from the deer. No injuries have been reported.

There’s no word on what happened to the deer.
