The reindeer are a common sight in Harold Hill
The creature got her antlers caught in a washing line near a block of flats in Kings Lynn Drive, Harold Hill yesterday morning.
Firefighters and vets, including Hillpark Vets, worked to free the animal, who is now on her way to the North Pole to help pull Santa’s sleigh.
Station Commander Martin Knight, who was at the scene, said: “The reindeer got her antlers caught around the washing line wire and was in distress. Three vets arrived and managed to calm the animal down before a firefighter used cutters to free the reindeer.
“Thankfully she was uninjured and ran off to safety. Fantastic work from all involved meant that it was a happy Christmas story and the reindeer will be free to fly Santa’s sleigh.”
