Cow On The Run

We can file this in the, "there's something you don't see every day" category. The other day, a cow was discovered walking around in Queens, NY.

Moo York City

Somehow, I don't imagine that corralling a cow is part of the standard NYPD training. After all, it did take a 2 mile chase over an hour of time. Imagine walking down the streets of NYC, and having a cow suddenly amble on by with a bunch of officers chasing after her. I'm thinking this wasn't the most high speed chase that the cops have ever partaken in. "Damn, I lost that bovine around the last corner. It's too fast!" The other question that I have: Where did it come from? No one seems to know. There were no cows missing from any of the charming Queens slaughterhouses (there's slaughterhouses in Queens?). Did this cow migrate slowly from some midwest farm, traveling only at night, until the mooing rampage was brought to a grinding halt by the diligence of the NYPD? I don't even want to ponder what might have happened if this terror had been stopped. I can finally sleep soundly knowing that it's finally over.
