BRUNSWICK, Ohio (WOIO) - A duck trapped in some fishing line, was rescued by the Animal Control Officer (ACO).

“We are proud to report on a successful water rescue from today, our first one of the year.,” posted Brunswick police on Facebook.

On Tuesday, a boy bird-watching with binoculars spotted the bird unable to get free from the fishing line near some fallen timbers in Brunswick Lake.

ACO Mike Kellums paddled out in an inflatable kayak.

Once he reached the duck, ACO Kellums cut off the fishing line and set the bird free.
