Coyote gets head stuck in railing, police come to assist

WESTON, Mass. (FOX 35 ORLANDO) - Coyotes can usually fend for themselves, but sometimes getting help from humans is just necessary.

On Thursday, the Massachusetts Environmental Police were called to a home in Weston after getting a report of a coyote with its head stuck in a railing that couldn't get free.

When they arrived, they found the animal's head wedged between the rungs of a resident's porch.

The officers were able to get the coyote free with no signs of injury to the animal.

They said the coyote then ran off without a problem.
