Police Taser Deer, Saw Off Its Antler To Save Its Life In Badass Rescue (Deadspin)
Sunday morning. Minnesota. People woke up to a strange sight: two white-tail bucks, their antlers hopelessly locked after a fight, one of them already dead with a broken neck. The other one was sure to be too, if he couldn't be freed—a coyote was circling the scene. So they called the cops, who immediately formulated a plan: break out the power tools and non-lethal weaponry. It is the plan of an eight-year-old boy's fantasies, and it worked perfectly.
South Lake Minnetonka police were called, and Officer Ricky Syhre suggested using a Taser on the deer.
