The deer was trapped in a gap in a fence it had tried to walk through.
North Canton Police Officer Knam and Seargeant Buzzard were able to lift the deer by its hind legs up where the gap in the fence was larger and the deer was able to get through.
Officer Knam is “no stranger to rescuing animals,” according to the Facebook post.
He is known within the department as the “Duck Recovery Expert” because he “always seems to be working when baby ducklings fall into storm drains,” the post read.
