A deer on the road caused a driver in Montgomery County to lose control of his vehicle early Saturday morning about a mile east of Red Oak. Authorities say 39-year old Donald Lee Gay, of Villisca, was traveling east on 200th Street at around 1:45-a.m., when he swerved to miss a deer. The 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix he was driving went out of control and slid through a yard at 2013 200th Street, causing about $3,000 damage to the landscaping. Gay was cited for Failure to Maintain Control. No injuries were reported.
