A cop traveling on a rainy Kansas City highway happened upon a heartbreaking sight this week: A frantic deer, caught in traffic, ramming itself in panic against the concrete barrier. Officer Jason Rains was joined by Sgt. Steven Sandusky; the pair thought the deer was injured and would have to be put down but after carefully approaching, realized it had gotten its leg stuck in a drainage hole. Rains was able to free the doe's leg. Sandusky then lead the deer off the bridge and over to a wooded area by a Firefighter's Memorial. "I walked over to her and I said, 'OK, let's go,'" Sandusky said. "And I just walked her like I would my dog." The grateful doe stayed close until she collapsed by the memorial from exhaustion. When they returned an hour later, she had gone. Sandusky said the experience was like nothing that's ever happened to him in his career. And it came loaded with an emotional punch. "That was intense. That was wonderful. That was a great feeling. I got to help her." VIDEO
