An encounter with nature Tuesday morning meant a close call for a young driver. A teenager behind the wheel of a grey jeep Cherokee came face to face with a deer during a hazy early morning drive on Ridge Road. He swerved around the deer, narrowly avoiding the animal. As a result, his car crashed into an embankment and tipped over. CDF Fire Crews arrived on the scene immediately. The young man was transported to Sutter Amador hospital but there are no reports of major injuries. The deer lived.
