Harford County Sheriff's Deputies Rescue Frightened Fawn Trapped At Bottom Of Well

HARFORD COUNTY, MD — Harford County Sheriff's Office deputies engaged in a training exercise recently paused their hard work to rescue a fawn trapped in a well.

Members of the special response team were conducting woodland training exercises at Palmer Park when they found the deer stuck at the bottom of a well.

Deputies activated a rappel operation, gliding down into the well to scoop up the frightened fawn and then setting it free once they reached the top again.

One complication: a snake kept slithering along the rim of the well during their rescue operation.
