April 9, 2015 International News

A friendly fisherman piloting his small vessel off the coast of Italy made the catch of a lifetime over the weekend — reeling in a roe deer who had somehow gotten himself lost far out to sea. was about a half-mile out from the port village of Giulianova when he spotted what he thought was a floating tree trunk.
