LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Officers with the Louisville Metro Police Department recently came to the rescue of some fine feathered friends.
According to a Facebook post by the agency, a woman saw some ducklings fall into a storm drain near Norton Brownsboro Hospital.
Police say the mother duck was nearby, but was unable to get the ducklings out -- so officers with LMPD's 8th division sprung into action, climbing down into the storm drain and pulling them out.
LMPD celebrated the rescue in a Facebook post:
