Not sure what type of animal it was

Officials say that deputy swerved suddenly to miss a large black animal, running on the highway.

“We’re not really sure what type of animal it was,” said Lea. “Based on the description we believe it to possibly be a large bear.”

The deputy’s patrol car rolled over into the embankment. Deputies say the animal got away. About an hour and a half before the crash, driver Trish Newsom says she too had a close call.
