COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4/AP) ― Police in Colorado Springs are looking for the person who threw the head of a deer into the parking lot of a Barack Obama campaign office.

The head was found late Saturday night.

The Humane Society says the buck's antlers had been cut off to make the head resemble a donkey, the symbol of the Democratic Party.

Right now, police have no suspects.

"We're certainly concerned that someone would do something so ridiculous," said Lt. David Whitlock, a police spokeswoman.

Colorado John McCain spokesman Tom Kise called the incident "despicable."

"Hopefully, we can continue to have a constructive dialogue and not have it digress into this hate speech," Kise said.

Whitlock said police will increase patrols around the city's campaign offices before next Tuesday's elections.
