Bull

It was quite a traffic stop for officers in South St. Paul, Minn. Friday as a bull was loose on Interstate 494. A traffic management camera showed police as they were trying to round up a bull.

The bull jumped three pens to get out of the Central Livestock Association then it wandered onto I-494. Officers tried to keep the bull from jumping the median with the help of a driver in a tow truck.

The bull also tried to ram one officer who got out of his car to try to stop the bull.

The animal weighs nearly 1900 pounds. The bull eventually wandered into a neighborhood, where police said they had to shoot and kill it to make sure it didn't hurt anyone.
