Belleville resident Mark Page and his wife were sleeping Saturday when the sound of breaking glass and - was that hooves? - woke them up.
Page went downstairs to find a 10-to-12 point buck in the kitchen with its head in the sink.
He says he looked at the animal for "not even a fraction of a second" before turning tail and heading back upstairs. He says he doesn't mess with deer, especially big ones.
The animal also was spooked and barreled through a closed window to escape.
Page says the deer jumped through a different window to get into his home.
He says the animal was injured, but police couldn't find it.
