Widely photographed mule-deer buck 'dispatched' as precaution

More than a year ago, people around town noticed a particularly friendly and majestic mule-deer buck. Residents took pictures and closely followed the deer’s exploits. Oftentimes, the buck liked to pick apples from the tree behind Gene’s Body Shop. Sometimes, he stood on cars for a boost to higher hanging fruit.
