TOWN AND COUNTRY, Mo. (AP) - The St. Louis County community of Town and Country will hire a sharpshooting company to kill 125 deer.

Resident Barbara Ann Hughes told board members the plan doesn't work because there were 63 deer-related accidents in 2011, most of those before the deer kill, and 65 this year.
