Cops Kill Cow After Wild Chase
From the article - this is by far the most amazing part of the story to me:
A police officer then shot the cow in the head, but instead of succumbing, the animal bolted past the police cars that were supposed to block its path out of the yard. The cow crossed to the north side of Quinn and ran through OK Ward Park. With several police and animal control officers in pursuit on foot and in vehicles, the cow emerged onto Henderson Lane from the park and headed north. Police and animal control officers spent the next several minutes chasing the cow on Henderson and adjoining streets. They eventually cornered the cow in the backyard of a house at Henderson and Jessie Clark lanes. A police officer shot the cow again in the head, and this time the animal died instantly.
Reminds me of this infamous scene from Me, Myself, and Irene:

Can't blame her at all. I'm just amazed she could jump a 6ft fence.

I completely forgot that seen was in the movie, Thank you for the laugh. I've been sitting waiting to get a load of tubes or pipes so I can head to Mankato, MN. I needed the laugh.
