Firefighters Crawl Across Frozen Minnesota Lake to Rescue Deer

Firefighters crawled on their hands and knees across thin ice to perform a delicate rescue. Neighbors noticed a deer stranded on top of Pike Lake in Minnesota and called authorities. A team arrived and formulated an unusual plan to assist the struggling buck. Instead of sliding a stone across an ice rink, the firefighters used instruments to slide the deer across the ice and onto the shore towards safety. He may have been frightened, but the buck was not hurt.
