A New York State conversation cop saved a deer that was literally caught in a head light.

Environmental Conservation Officer Jeff Hull was called to Centereach on Long Island to reports of a deer that had managed to get its head stuck inside a light globe from a lamppost on Tuesday morning.

The report said the animal had got its head stuck inside the globe and had been laying in the woods since the night before, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation said on its Facebook page.

Upon arrival, Officer spotted the deer about 20 yards from the road in a housing development.

Officer Hull approached the deer, but on his first attempt, ‘the wet globe slipped out of his hands.’

Unable to see, the deer then ran into a nearby downed tree and fell down, the department said.

But then, Officer Hull threw his coat over the globe and grabbed it with both arms ‘as the deer kicked and struggled to break free.’

At this point, the deer managed to slip its head out of the globe and ran off into the woods.

‘ECO Hull was left with a good story and a few bruises, but his integrity intact,’ the department added.
