352, you on the road? 415. 415. All right, could you check the area of Parker, Burroughs Way, Union Avenue, that square, that square. Got a call from a resident. She saw a deer with a pole in its antlers. She was trying to help the deer, and it ran into the backyards of Burroughs Way where she lost sight of it. She was advised we're not going on private property looking for the animal, but she thinks it might come out on the other side of union. Maybe you could just circle the area to see if you come up with something. You said a pole in the antler, like sick of them? No, like a pole, like a street sign pole. She said it had some rags and appeared to be entwined in the antlers. Briefing. I have 415. The last reported sighting was going into the backyard at 10 Burroughs Way.
