Mama goose finds police, officers free gosling tangled in string
CINCINNATI, OH (WKRC) — It’s not a sight Sergeant James Givens is used to seeing, a goose pecking at his cruiser door, but that’s what happened Monday, May 9, and initially the veteran Cincinnati officer thought the goose was simply hungry.
“It kept pecking and pecking and normally they don’t come near us. Then it walked away and then it stopped and looked back so I followed it and it led me right over to the baby that was tangled up in all that string,” Givens said.
The string was tied to a Mother’s Day balloon among some of the litter near Mill Creek. Givens shot video on his cellphone. He and Specialist Cecilia Charron called the SPCA, but no one was immediately available to come out. So Charron took matters into her own hands.
