The Madeira, Ohio Police Department occasionally responds to reports of animals trapped or in distress.

According to the department’s Facebook page, Officer Phil Mitchell recently responded to a report of a young fawn that had become separated from its mother inside a fenced swimming pool.

While trying to free the fawn from the fenced-in area, it fell into the swimming pool, but Mitchell was able to quickly rescue it from the water.

Soon after, he reunited the fawn with its mother- nicely done, officer!
