A Dog Is a Boy is a Rock is a Deer...
Animal Rights run amok:
In September, after law enforcement officers in North Carolina spotted a reportedly stolen ambulance and chased it through three counties until forcing it into a ditch north of Greensboro, they found the driver to be mohawk-hairstyled Leon Hollimon Jr., 37, who is not a medical professional but was wearing a stethoscope and with latex gloves in his pocket. Strapped to a gurney in the back was a dead six-point deer, and according to witnesses cited by the Florida Times-Union newspaper (Hollimon is from Jacksonville, Fla.), an intravenous line was attached to it and a defibrillator had been used.

Um.... that's interesting. LOL! What the heck?!? Must have been quite a shock for the cops.
Ooookaay -- would love to know "the rest of the story" here -- was he a deerhunter who had hunter's remorse? A wannabe medic practicing his CPR skills? Any other suggestions?
Huhhh??
Too gob-smacked by the weirdness to comment further...
:-)
I've "herd" of playing doctor, but never even at my most inebriated have I dreamed up a game called “Ambulance Driver.” Sounds like his “deer” didn’t much like it and decided to flat-line rather than spend any more quality time with this goof!
It’s guys like him that have people thinking that everyone who wears a Mohawk is a weirdo. Sheesh!
