Wild deer runs loose inside California Sam's Club, video shows
A deer was caught on camera dashing through the front door of a southern California Sam’s Club.
It was the culmination of a morning and early afternoon incident on Thursday for officers with the Corona Police Department, who had been on the buck’s tail after receiving several calls about it being a runaway.
“The young buck ran through yards, jumped a wall, and took a brief dip in a backyard pool before entering Sam’s Club on Ontario Avenue where it was captured by police personnel,” Corona PD wrote on Instagram with a video showing the deer prance into the club without a membership.
The department added some holiday cheer to the video with “Run Rudolph Run,” a song by Chuck Berry, as an officer can be seen chasing the “mastermind deer.”

The wild animal even appeared to peruse a festive aisle. The deer was “consoled” prior to Corona animal control arriving to help release the deer back into the wild.
No injuries were reported as a result of the runaway deer. Sam’s Club did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Wireless Deer Fence website suggests people move away when deer are around and take cover to avoid confrontation.

What is the cheapest city in Georgia to live with a roomate?
NJ apartment dwellers, renters have these options for help with rent
State and local officials say several programs are designed to help low and moderate-income households stay housed in the face of financial distress.
As rent prices continue to strain budgets, a new study is highlighting where Georgians can save the most by splitting housing costs.
According to a report from SmartAsset, some cities in Georgia offer major savings for renters who choose to live with a roommate.
Here’s what to know.
Where can you save the most in Georgia?
The study ranks Augusta as the top city in Georgia for roommate savings, and No. 6 in the country.
Renters there can save about 45% on monthly rent, or roughly $450 per month, by sharing an apartment.
Here’s how the costs compare in Augusta:
- One-bedroom rent: $1,000
- Two-bedroom rent: $1,100
- Estimated monthly savings with a roommate: $450
Why are roommate savings so high?
With rent prices rising, splitting costs has become one of the easiest ways to cut monthly expenses.
The study shows that sharing rent can significantly reduce housing costs, especially in cities where prices have climbed in recent years.
How does Georgia compare to the rest of the country?
Here’s the top 10 cities in the US for saving with a roomate:
- Cleveland, OH
- Baton Rouge, LA
- Jersey City, NJ
- Memphis, TN
- Boise, ID
- Augusta, GA
- New Haven, CT
- Chattanooga, TN
- Virginia Beach, VA
- Shreveport, LA
Methodology
The study analyzed 100 U.S. cities using rental data from March 2025 to March 2026 from Zumper, comparing one-bedroom rents to half the cost of two-bedroom apartments to estimate savings from sharing with a roommate.
