\"\"<\/a>WHITEHOUSE \u2014 Authorities are issuing words of caution following an incident involving a deer and two men. KETK reports Joseph Rose and Cole Kellis were leaving their home in Whitehouse on Friday morning when they noticed a deer in their front yard. Rose approached the deer, and he says the deer seemed friendly. But Kellis and Rose say the deer then charged them and started to attack. Rose and Kellis ran to Rose\u2019s pickup truck to try to get away from the wild buck. The deer then \u201cpoked\u201d Rose in his ribs, so Rose jumped out of his truck into the back-bed. Rose says he left his driver-side door open and the deer climbed in and took his pack of cigarettes that were sitting in his center console.<\/p>\n

The deer starting eating Rose\u2019s smokes, and when Rose tried to get them back, Rose says the deer got more aggressive. They then had to call Whitehouse police and the Game Warden. When police arrived they had to taser the deer, and then Rose says it took more than 5 men to restrain the buck. In the process, some of the officers got hurt, with one sustaining a broken wrist. KETK spoke to Smith County Game Warden Dustin Dockery, and he says, \u201cAdmire deer from a distance but do not approach them because they can be dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
