Holiday shopping took a wild turn after Santa appeared to lose one of his reindeer who went running through a store at the Jersey Shore. <\/p>\n
Shoppers scrambled to get out of its way but one woman didn’t think twice about going after the frightened deer. <\/p>\n
“I started following it through the store,” Krista Dey explained. “I was worried about everyone else\u2019s safety more than mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
The wild encounter began when the deer crashed into Dey’s cart while she and her best friend were shopping inside a Marshalls store in Brick Township, New Jersey. <\/p>\n
“She, like, just immediately sprung into action. I don’t even think she thought about what was going on,” Dey’s best friend Kaitlyn Keim said. “She saved the day.”<\/p>\n
Dey managed to corner the deer, wrangle it and then safely guided it out through the store’s front door. <\/p>\n
The two women said that the deer ran off with what looked like some minor cuts on its legs but no people were hurt during this incident.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not clear exactly how the deer got into the store, but it appears it was hoping to save a few bucks this holiday season. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holiday shopping took a wild turn after Santa appeared to lose one of his reindeer who went running…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":439121,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[14431,401,159,67,132,68,837],"class_list":{"0":"post-439120","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wildlife","8":"tag-critter-corner","9":"tag-new-jersey","10":"tag-science","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us","14":"tag-wildlife"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115698578408130595","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439120","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=439120"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439120\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/439121"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=439120"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=439120"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=439120"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
