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.

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.
