A group of Winnipeg firefighters ended up rescuing and comforting a fawn that had become trapped in the St. James area.
On Tuesday, a concerned citizen called the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service about a fawn whose leg was caught in a grate behind the Safeway on Madison Street near Polo Park.
The firefighters freed the fawn, treated and bandaged its injured leg.
