Coors brewery employees help rescue stranded deer

Colorado wildlife officials and Coors brewery employees rescued a large mule deer stranded on an icy lake near Golden Colorado.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife district spokeswoman Jennifer Churchill said the animal wandered onto the frozen lake or was chased by a predator and appeared to be in good condition.

Ms Churchill said there was no indication that the animal broke through the ice and it was not struggling.

Rescuers lassoed the animal and were able to drag it across the lake to safety.
