Elk crushed in barn collapse
By Associated PressMETALINE FALLS, Wash. (AP) - Six wild elk that took refuge from winter weather in an old hay storage barn were killed when the roof collapsed. The state Fish and Wildlife Department said 20 elk had sought refuge in the barn on Tuesday. The area has been pounded by more than 6 feet of snow this winter, and dozens of roofs have collapsed. Five of the elk died instantly and one suffered a broken back and had to be euthanized. Officers said it was rare for elk to be so desperate that they would enter a barn.
