Samantha Moore was filming this deer bounding through the streets of downtown Louisville on Monday morning, near the Galt House hotel, when the deer jumped over a gate and into the Ohio River. The deer may have narrowly missed being hit by a car.
Samantha told Storyful, “We were taking pictures of the flood and heard my friend say, ‘There’s a deer!’ I turned around and started recording. She started to run toward us so he started clapping and she turned a little and then jumped. She swam towards the Bell of Louisville. We were all in shock.” Credit: Samantha Moore via Storyful
