ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, Md. — A police officer in Anne Arundel County helped rescue a deer that was stuck in a fence last week. The rescue attempt was caught on the officer's body worn camera.
It happened on Dec. 16. Sgt. Matt Hall was flagged down by several people while driving near Friendship Road near Kim Lane in the southern part of the county. The people on the side of the road told Hall that the deer had gotten its antlers stuck in a fence line.
The officer grabbed the deer by its antlers to try to wrestle the deer free. The deer struggles a bit against Hall.
"Ya gotta relax," Hall tells the deer. "That's the only way I'm going to be able to help you is if you relax."
Eventually, Hall is able to get the deer free from the fence. It doesn't stick around long to say thank you, bolting away.
Good work, Sgt. Hall!
