Outstanding work by first responders, including our own Suffolk County Park Rangers this past weekend! Officers rescued a deer that fell through the ice in Narrow Bay off of Smith Point County Park on Sunday, January 23. A great job was done by all of the officers involved.

SCPD Marine Bureau officers responded to a deer stuck on the ice off Smith Point County Park on 1/23. A fawn had gotten stuck, half submerged in the icy water roughly 60 feet off shore. The officers deployed an ice sled & were able to bring her to safety. Good job to all!
