Police Poaching Program
Faremount. The deer population has been a problem in the Moon Valley area for quite some time. Like, there ain't enough of them!
the Faremount police department has decided to take part in a citywide project to lower the deer population using the tools and technology available to them.
Faremount officer Shank Seeman, Dike Humper, and one who wanted to remain anonymous, showed off thier hunting skills using their squad spotlight, their in-car video system, a Glock pistol, and sharp shooting abilities to bag themselves a deer.
Driving on the outskirts of Faremount where deer are usually struck by runaway combines, the officers were showing off their handywork in the Moon Valley Jail's video machine.
"Hey, looky there!" cried officer Seeman, "that's when I done spotted me a deer!"
The video shows a 7-pount buck in black and white, coming up onto the shoulder from the ditch. Officer Seeman's spotlight goes on, stunning the deer.
"Yep," officer Humper sighs, "this is where my expert abilities in sniper fire pay off."
A flash appears breifly on the right of the screen. the deer totters and falls. You can hear Officer Seeman howling like a Hee-Haw reject. Then, the unidentified officer pulls up in his truck and puts the deer in the bed and drives off.
So, the next time you're out on the backroads of Moon Valley near Faremount, thank Faremount's finest for ensuring the safety of your vehicle, your family and you.
