Police hunt “masked suspect” roaming New York town but it turns out to be a deer

by

So, the police got called out in New York because people were reporting a ‘masked suspect’ wandering around. Turns out, it wasn’t a person at all – it was just a deer with a plastic bag stuck on its head! Can you believe it? I was picturing some supervillain, but it was just a poor, confused deer. Definitely a funny story to hear about while I’m grinding levels!

On December 28, 2025, police received a strange call about someone seemingly wearing a mask and walking around, which led them to begin an investigation.

Ramapo police found a deer in the snow with a large plastic bag stuck over its head. They shared a video on Facebook showing how they carefully removed the bag and freed the animal.

Police realize the “masked suspect” was a deer

In the video, police officers carefully approached the deer. One officer then gently took the bag off its head. As soon as it was free, the deer quickly jumped up and ran into the woods.

Okay, so the police posted this hilarious video, and the caption said whatever they thought was inside the bag actually turned out to be a deer! They even joked about going into ‘deer-tective’ mode to remove the ‘disguise’ – basically, getting the deer out of the bag – and then letting it go free. It was such a funny way to explain the whole situation!

Police have been surprised by false alarms from concerned citizens before. For example, last November, several reports of abandoned dogs turned out to be a deer toy from the movie Frozen 2. And in September, officers responding to calls about a woman needing help found a screaming goat instead.
