    Unsuspecting Walmart customer takes down startled deer 1 minute

    May 18, 2017, 2:16 p.m. ET

    WADENA, Minn. — A confused white-tailed deer that wandered into a Walmart store in Minnesota ran into a startled customer who tackled the animal to the ground.

    Shoppers at the store in Wadena, 150 miles northwest of Minneapolis, speculated that the young animal was searching for a snack Tuesday when it entered the store through the garden center doors.

    Tom Grasswick, who happens to live in Deer Creek, told WDAY-TV that he felt like someone had slugged him when the deer slammed into him. Grasswick says his first instinct was to tackle the animal, bringing it down on a pallet of dog food.

    Grasswick covered the deer’s eyes to calm it down, and he and others took the animal outside and set it free.
