(CBS DETROIT) - The Farmington Hills Fire Department helped rescue a deer stuck in a swimming pool on Monday. 

Farmington Hills firefighters and police responded to a home on Wildwood Trail for a deer stuck in an above-ground pool. Officials were able to rescue the deer by using rope and a piece of plywood to act as a ramp for the deer to climb out. Once out of the water, the deer quickly scampered back into the woods.
