Baltimore's accidental 'running of the bull' after 725kg Angus escapes


By AGENCY

An escaped Angus breeding bull crosses North Warwick Avenue near Coppin State University after being shot with several tranquilliser darts. The bull eventually went down a couple blocks later and was loaded into a trailer.

When Maryland Zoo officials in the US got a phone call from Baltimore police asking for help to corral a loose bull in the city, they didn’t think twice. To them, it was just another day.

“It’s unusual for the police, but not unusual for us,” said Karl Kranz, the zoo’s chief operating officer. “We regularly train for this in the zoo, in case one of our own animals escapes.”
