CANTON, Ohio - Heartwarming video shows an Ohio state trooper stopping to safely remove an injured kitten that was found lying on a busy highway Wednesday. 

The Ohio State Highway Patrol released footage that showed the officer leaving his vehicle on Interstate 77 in Canton to approach the black and white kitten.

The trooper then scoops up the kitten, using a jacket, and places the cat in the back of his vehicle. 

The kitten was brought to the Stark County Humane Society where it's waiting for a forever home, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said.
