Drowning in the Letter of the Law

Two guys with a rubber raft successfully save a drowning deer. For their kind act, Baltimore's Natural Resources Police rewards the two samaritans with a good scolding and a matching $90 fine, because the two lacked the requisite "flotation devices." I'd have thought a rubber raft floats pretty damn well. Hell, it might even be made for buoyancy, but I admit I'm no nautical expert.

Just remember folks: if you ever see police officers drowning, get thee to a store pronto and buy life jackets before you attempt a rescue. It's the law.
