Long Island police make daring deer rescue after fawn falls through ice

A baby deer that had fallen through the ice into the frigid bay waters off Long Island was brought to safety in a bold police rescue.

The rescue took place around 4:20 p.m. in Narrow Bay, north of an ocean barrier island in Shirley, officials said.

A park ranger at Smith Point reported the deer had fallen in the 40-degree water, and Suffolk County Police Officer Robert King used an ice sled to approach the animal, according to the department.
