Deer causes chaos after breaking into Melbourne home before becoming trapped

A Melbourne family has had their school holidays interrupted by a rampant deer that smashed its way into their home in the city's inner north-east.

Alphington resident Alexander Hill said he switched his phone on following a work meeting on Thursday and discovered half a dozen missed calls and a text message that read "There's a stag in the house and blood is everywhere".

A call to the neighbours confirmed a deer had made its way onto the ground floor of Mr Hill's townhouse and calls were made to police and Parks Victoria.
