Officers from the Beavercreek Twp. Police Department and Fire Department worked together to free the little bird.
Their late-night ‘rescue mission’ was a success thanks to ‘teamwork, flashlights, and a whole lot of heart,’ said a spokesperson for the Beavercreek Township Fire Department on social media.

A neighborhood cat watched over the operation and is seen sitting near the storm in one of the photos the fire department posted on social media.
“Big thank you to @BeavercreekOHPD and our firefighters for always answering the call — even when it quacks,” the spokesperson said on social media.
