St. Johns County deputies found themselves dealing with a very unexpected houseguest when a confused buck somehow wandered into a Florida home and ended up trapped in the bathroom. Body camera footage released by authorities shows the officers getting creative, using a long pool brush to gently herd the frantic deer out of the tight space and toward the back door. The wild ride wasn't quite over once they reached the patio. As the deer bolted outside, the confused creature plunged straight into the homeowner's backyard swimming pool. Fortunately, the buck quickly found its footing, climbed out of the water, and safely scampered back into the nearby woods unharmed.
