Overview

• Michigan State Police troopers from the Jackson Post responded to a residence in the 3600 block of Spring Arbor Road near Robinson Road for a report of a deer caught in a wrought‑iron fence.
• Body-camera footage shows the deer wedged at the hips as a trooper draped a coat over its head to keep it calm.
• After considering cutting tools, the troopers opted to use a floor jack to gently widen the bars of the fence.
• The animal was freed without injury and ran off immediately once the jacket was removed.
• MSP First District shared the video on Monday with a message of praise for the troopers, and local outlets published the footage.
