PASADENA, Texas — A father and son are facing charges after authorities said they killed a deer on a college campus in Pasadena earlier this week.
On Monday around 11:20 a.m., police said a caller informed them of an on-ground deer blind and deer corn in a wooded area of the University of Houston-Clear Lake Campus Nature Trail.
After an investigation, police said they discovered Reed, 18, and his father, 39-year-old Shane Strickland, had just shot and killed a deer with a crossbow.
Neither Reed nor Shane is affiliated with the university and authorities said they posed no threat to anyone on campus.
They each posted $1,000 bonds and are due in court on Thursday.
They're charged with taking certain wildlife without consent.
