Burlington, IOWA- Ron Bennett, operations manager for Deery Bros. Collision Center, had to remove a deer that attacked the repair center which specializes in damage done by collisions with deer. According to Korey Trail, assistant manager for the collision center, the buck started ramming his head against the front entrance at about 8:20 a.m. until the glass door gave way and the deer was able to enter the office. "I guess this one wanted to bang the cars back up before we got them back to their owners," said Dan Scopazzi, a dent specialist. "If they succeed they will either bankrupt America or we will all be driving lousy looking cars."
