Firefighters from multiple departments responded to a river in New Jersey where a deer wandered out onto the melting ice and fell through.
The Oceanport Fire Department said on social media that crews responded to the Shrewsbury River on Tuesday alongside the Sea Bright Fire Department, Little Silver Fire Department, the Oceanport Police Department and the Oceanport First Aid Squad.
Photos from the scene show rescuers using an inflatable raft and a catch pole to bring the deer back to dry land.
“This incident is a great example of interagency cooperation and the dedication of our local first responders — always ready to help, no matter the situation,” the post said.
