LANCASTER, Pa., Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Police in Pennsylvania said a deer jumped through a window into a motel room and shocked a sleeping couple.

Law enforcement officers were called to the Econo Lodge in Lancaster around 11:45 p.m. Saturday after a report of a deer in a motel room, WGAL-TV, Lancaster, reported Tuesday.

The officers said they arrived to find the deer, which was bleeding from broken glass in the shattered window, bouncing off the walls of the room. They said the animal jumped back out the window, was struck by a vehicle and disappeared into a corn field.

Police said the couple had locked themselves in the bathroom and were not injured.
