Bowlers said the smell of the animal worsened quickly. At first it really didn't smell like anything . Residents of Springfield House are trying to figure out how the deer got in their bathroom without anyone noticing. Childers said he used the same shower stall around noon Monday. Bowlers said he was in his room all afternoon with his door open and would have noticed if the deer was brought down the hall.
Some students speculate that the deer was brought in through a bathroom window.
Because there was no blood trail, some believe the deer was transported in a bag, Childers said. Police are continuing to investigate. When the responsible party is discovered, they could face charges of criminal mischief or disorderly conduct, Neff said. Anyone with information is asked to contact Penn State Police at 863-1111. Childers said it would be difficult to forget what he saw.
