That's according to Lt. Adam Johnson with that fire department in Maynardville.
Johnson said Dyer brought the hawk to UT Veterinary Medical Center to receive treatment.
Johnson said this was the first animal rescue for the fire department. The hawk is expected to make a full recovery and does not have any broken bones or wings.
