A video captured by a neighbor in Winston-Salem shows Kevin McHugh and others pursing a deer seen wandering their neighborhood with the bucket stuck on its head.

"Hopping around because it couldn't see-- and thought it was in the dark. It was like a zombie movie, it was really terrifying." McHugh was finally able to get close enough to pull the bucket from the deer's head. "It was terrifying," McHugh said. "If I didn't have my adrenaline going the whole time, I would've probably run from the deer instead of going toward the deer." McHugh said he wasn't thinking about his own safety. "The only thing I thought to do was try to wrestle the bucket off its head," McHugh said. "And I succeeded." Animal rescuers in Michigan conducted a similar rescue last month when a deer was spotted wandering a Bloomfield Hills neighborhood with a plastic Halloween bucket stuck over its head.
