Officers said the the deer was ‘causing havoc’ before getting trapped in a fence.
Police in Worksop said:
‘This four-legged suspect was causing havoc in the Worksop area on Wednesday afternoon.
‘By the time officers finally caught up with her, she’d hampered her own escape by getting caught up in a fence!
‘Some would say she was hanging on for ‘deer’ life (see what I did there) .
‘Once freed from her unfortunate predicament, she decided that she wasn’t ready to give up and started lashing out.
‘Despite numerous calls from our four-legged friend of “Go catch some proper criminals” and “Did you get bullied at school?” officers finally managed to detain her and get her in to a cell! It was a real struggle!
‘With help from the RSPCA she was taken away and will be treated for her injuries before being released back into her natural habitat.
‘Thank you to several members of the public who also helped in her safe escape.’
