Yesterday, a little spotted fawn got trapped in a fence off Phil Tyner Road in Crestview. Luckily, deputies from the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office came to the rescue.

According to the OCSO, Deputy Josh Hamilton was able to remove a piece of the fence that allowed the fawn rested for a minute. The fawn then got up and ran into the woods.

In a statement posted on Facebook, the OCSO said that although the fawn had some raw scrapes where it had tried to break free, the young deer didn’t appear to have any significant injuries.
