Fire Crews Rescue Trapped Deer In Castro Valley

CASTRO VALLEY, CA — One deer got a happy ending after getting stuck in a fence last month in Castro Valley.

It's unclear how the deer got stuck. When the Alameda County Fire Department arrived at the scene just before 7 p.m. on Oct. 28, they found the deer trapped in a fence along Center Street, authorities said.

Photos from the scene show authorities using the "Jaws of Life" to free the deer, according to the Alameda County Fire Department.

"The deer was not injured and happily pranced away," fire officials said in a post on Instagram.
