Cattle went on the rampage in Ruby Gailey Drive as Public Safety tried to corner them earlier this morning (Friday).

The six-strong group of unruly bovines decided to set up shop in a garden in Ruby Gailey. They were cornered by pound staff and Public Safety officers, but clearly did not want to be removed without some chewing-of-cud and a bit of frisky escapism.

The cattle managed to break through police lines twice before their ringleader was captured.

After a mammoth struggle, he was eventually secured. His friends managed to elude capture, scattering in all directions. A “cow hunt” is currently underway for the elusive, patty-dropping herd.

As one officer was heard to quip, “It is going to be a long day if it starts like this!”
