LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A Plymouth councilman is warning drivers to be extra careful on the road after a near-death experience this weekend. He was making a daily commute to work on a busy expressway when a deer collided with his SUV.

Morehart was headed to work Saturday morning on the Cross Valley Expressway when, in an instant, a four-point buck leaped over a divider and directly into the path of his SUV.
