October 3, 2018, West Life A3 Buck stuck in soccer net, then naps on beach By JEFF GALLATIN BAY VILLAGE — A wandering deer was rescued once, then drew attention from several people as it made its way around Bay Village before settling in for a beachfront nap. A Bay Village police officer initially saw the deer at 7:35 a.m. Sept. 24, when the buck was entangled in netting on the Cahoon Road soccer fields. He called for the animal control officer and service department to help free the buck. “It was a relatively young deer, but it was still a decent size,” said Bay Village Patrolman Anthony Fuchs, the officer who initially found him. “He was thrashing around pretty good when I saw it in the nets.” Service Department staffers helped rescue the agitated animal, said Donny Landers, the operations manager for the department. “It’s not something we see a lot of calls for,” Landers said. “We get a call once every season or two about some animal getting stuck in the nets, on a fence or stuck somewhere. So we do what we can to help it out.” After the service workers arrived, a police officer used his Taser to stun the buck. The group cut him free without injuring him, although he still had part of the net hanging from his antlers. Once free, the deer ran into the woods, police said. However, at 10:39 a.m. a woman called police and reported a deer with netting on its antlers on the beach area behind homes in the 27000 block of Lake Road. A neighbor said she had seen the deer swimming over from the Huntington Beach area. Another officer checked on the deer, but Fuchs said he heard the call. “He sure got around that morning,” Fuchs said. This time police found that the deer was calm and napping on the beach. The department took no further calls about him.

North Olmsted man arrested for dog theft FAIRVIEW PARK — Police say they have caught the man who stole a Lakewood woman’s dog. But the dog remains missing. Michael Bell, 26, of North Olmsted, is to appear Oct. 10 in Rocky River Municipal Court on a theft charge. Bell was arrested Sept. 26 when he came to Rocky River Municipal Court for another matter. Fairview Park police issued had an arrest warrant for Bell Sept. 19. Brooke Ellison told police Sept. 10 she had taken her dog, Tancy, to Reggie’s Saloon to meet a dog groomer who was going to take the dog home for the night before grooming it the next day. But the groomer could not take the dog home, saying he had cats who would not get along with Tancy, Ellison said. Bell offered to take the dog home and then take it to the groomer’s, where Ellison could pick it up. Ellison said she agreed to this, despite not knowing Bell. But when she went to the groomer, he said the dog was never brought in. Ellison said. People then told her they didn’t know where the dog was. Police still haven’t found out where Tancy is, said Fairview Park police Lt. Paul Shepard. To contact this reporter, email assoceditor@ westlifenews.com or call 440-871-5795.
