Moreno, 37, of Houston, Texas, was driving a 2010 Peterbilt truck northbound when the deer entered the road in front of him. He could not avoid hitting the deer. He managed to pull the truck to the side of the road. Moreno was not injured.

Damages to the radiator of the truck required it to be towed.
