Half of the one-year-old deer’s body was inside Stephen King’s property. When he tried to manoeuvre himself to be set free, the young animal’s midsection got caught on the shape spikes.

Bangor police department noted that the animal found itself in the situation after attempting to jump over the fence of ‘The Shining‘ author, which ended up being too high. They confirmed to TMZ that while it was unclear whether Stephen King was home at the time, he did not call the police. It was a woman driving by who spotted the animal and dialled 911.

Upon arrival, police put the deer out of its misery and shot it.
