00:00Let's get in our second of the triple plays. Curtis, this one's for you.
00:06All right, so this one is the first for us. I checked in. I believe you guys, we never had one from South Dakota before.
00:13So it comes to us from the police department in Watertown, which is South Dakota's fifth largest city population, 22,000.
00:24It looks like it'll be apartment 920B.
00:27Police in Watertown, South Dakota, are responding to a report of a burglary in progress.
00:38Watertown Police Department.
00:40At this point, the officer has no idea if the burglars are still inside.
00:44RP provided a name. It's on the call. I don't have a name card for it.
00:48The officer slowly makes his way over to the side of the house.
00:54Watertown Police Department.
00:56If there is somebody inside, they're not responding.
01:00Looks like backup has just arrived.
01:02Is this window damaged?
01:03Yeah, the window's damaged. I'm not getting any answers at the door.
01:07The lights are on. There's glass on the floor in there.
01:11So I don't know if somebody threw a rock or...
01:15Is it unlocked?
01:16I don't know.
01:17Watertown Police Department.
01:23You don't have a key for it, yeah?
01:25That's the neighbor who called 911.
01:28He gives them the key.
01:29Thinking that one, maybe?
01:30We'll go in and clear it.
01:32They unlock the door.
01:345-2-1-0-3.
01:35We'll be making entry.
01:37And enter with guns drawn.
01:39Police Department.
01:40Check those first.
01:41Watertown Police Department.
01:44If you're in here, make yourself known.
01:48Oh, shit.
01:51It's a deer.
01:53No shit.
01:54It's a deer.
01:55Oh, my God.
01:56Holy shit.
01:57Okay.
01:57Let's...
01:58We're going to make...
01:59Oh, my God.
02:00Oh, deer.
02:01This call has taken a wild turn.
02:03Oh, my God.
02:03I can't make this up.
02:04There's a deer in here.
02:05It scared the...
02:06It was on top of the bed.
02:08That scared me.
02:11Holy cow.
02:13Actually, more like holy adult white-tailed deer.
02:16You grab that chair.
02:17I'll grab this.
02:19And we'll just try to, like, shoo it.
02:22Okay.
02:22Out.
02:23All right.
02:24Let me just make sure there's no other deer here.
02:27They're now making sure this was strictly a one-deer job,
02:31and there are no accomplices.
02:32Police department.
02:34There's no other deer inside,
02:35so I guess the buck stops right here...
02:38Holy sh...
02:39...in this bedroom.
02:41Everybody ready out here?
02:42Yeah, we're good.
02:43Holy crap.
02:44Ready for this, Zach?
02:45Yeah.
02:49The officer opens the door,
02:51and in case the deer goes on the attack,
02:53each of the officers is on with some furniture.
02:57Where is it?
02:57Oh, there it is right there.
02:59That's a buck.
03:00Oh, my God.
03:01Oh, my God.
03:03Is there two in here?
03:05That's a buck.
03:06Yeah.
03:08That's a big buck.
03:10Oh, my.
03:11As the buck continues his rampage...
03:13I don't know what to do.
03:14This is a first.
03:15I'm not getting in front of that thing.
03:16No.
03:17The officers hold on to their chairs for dear life.
03:20He just keeps going into the closet
03:21and back into the bedroom.
03:24Hey!
03:25Come on!
03:25Hey!
03:25The officers step back.
03:28And here comes the deer.
03:30Get out.
03:30He's coming out!
03:31And there goes the deer.
03:35See that thing?
03:37Oh, no.
03:40Now, we've been told the deer's okay.
03:43And, by the way,
03:44it's now mating season
03:45throughout much of the country.
03:46So, please be careful out there
03:47for any overly excited bucks.
03:49Well, I've heard of being a buck in the bedroom.
03:53Never seen it literally.
03:55But have you been called one?
03:56Well, you know, yeah.
03:57I'm just saying.
03:58You know, yeah.
03:58Just, you know, buck in the bedroom.
04:00I never actually thought I'd see one,
04:02like, in real life.
04:03Better than a buck.
04:04Yeah, yeah.
04:05Yeah.
