Steer busts out of trailer, blocks Atlanta traffic for over an hour

We love a great animal blocks site visitors story listed here at Autoblog. See the latest mama llama trauma incident in Oregon and koala at the rear of the wheel in Australia tales as examples. Today, the news concerns a steer blocking site visitors in the suburbs of Atlanta.

Neighborhood news outlet WSB-Tv Atlanta noted about the weekend that the bovine escaped its trailer on a metro freeway. It reportedly roamed no cost for about an hour on the freeway (I-285 West), creating site visitors to pile up and even perhaps creating a crash or two. Neighborhood news retailers had been not able to verify that the steer was the source of the crashes, but we would not be surprised if it was.

Law enforcement had been identified as in to corral the animal. It took multiple officers to get the job done, but they couldn’t have done it devoid of the aid of a citizen who experienced rope. What approaches of capture had been the law enforcement making an attempt in advance of some genius with rope came together, you request? We’re not certain. The police’s Facebook put up (down below) does not say.

You can see photos of the steer tied up to an officer’s Chevy Tahoe. Law enforcement verified that the animal basically fell out of a livestock trailer (c’mon people today, safe your cows). The steer has given that lost its sweet, sweet flexibility and was returned to its operator. There is no question that the grand escape and time on the run has created it the most legen-dairy steer on the farm.
