Ross Township Police Department posted a video of the incident on its Facebook page on Monday, showing the moment that Patrol Officer Nathan Roy caught the baby deer outside of North Hills High School.

“Officer Roy showed the agility, sharp reflexes, and fearlessness of a FIFA World Cup Goaltender with this save!” the police department wrote in its social media post.

Cheering could also be heard in the video after Roy made the catch.
