For the second time this week, officers offered an assist to an injured bird in the area, following their swan save on Sunday night after the animal had been struck by a car and broke its leg.

On Monday, officers offered wildlife experts a hand in capturing a raptor, which had suffered a broken wing from an unknown incident. After helping corral the raptor - also known as a bird of prey - police were able to cage the bird, which has since been transported to the Valley Cottage Animal Hospital for treatment on the broken wing.
