First-hand terror: New York law enforcement officials return from Israel amid escalating conflict

 A boy in Saint James is going viral for a video of him saving a baby deer from a pool.

The TikTok has over 19 million views and 2.5 million likes!

News 12 caught up with 12-year-old Anthony Masaitis and his father who filmed the rescue.

"It was like crazy, because if it went into the deep end, I was thinking about jumping inside the pool, but luckily it stayed in the shallow end and it was to the side, so I was able to grab it and take it out," said Masaitis.

Thankfully, the fawn reunited with its mother a couple of hours later.
