One quiet evening, a young fawn fell into a storm drain, unable to climb out. Trapped and frightened, the fawn bleated for help while its mother paced nearby. When Captain Eric Uhlhorn and Firefighter Martez Mitchell arrived, they knew the rescue would require more than just strength—it required patience and gentleness.
After carefully prying open the storm drain grate, the firefighters worked together, cautiously lifting the trembling fawn from the darkness. With a careful, controlled touch, the fawn was freed and returned to the open air. The relieved crowd cheered, and moments later, the fawn reunited with its mother, safe once again.
The rescue wasn’t just about saving a life—it was a reminder of the compassion and humanity that our first responders bring to every situation, no matter how small the creature in need.
