Herd of calves shuts down busy Plano intersection
Watch: Cow herd blocks busy Plano intersection
This is something you don't see in the suburbs every day. Police in Plano had to wrangle up a cow herd that got stuck in traffic near East Parker and Jupiter roads.
PLANO, Texas - Police in Plano had to move into action last week to help some cows that got stuck at a busy intersection.
More than two dozen calves bit off more than they could chew last Thursday. They crossed the street in search of greener pastures.
The herd shut down traffic near East Parker and Jupiter roads.
Surprised drivers watched as Plano officers wrangled up the babies and got them back where they belonged.
Thankfully, no cows, officers, or drivers were hurt.
Plano drivers report seeing an alligator on the road. It wasn't quite what they thought.
City officials said they got a number of calls about an alligator in the westbound lanes of the George Bush Tollway during rush hour Monday morning.
Plano police joked that there's no such thing as a "regular day" when it comes to law enforcement.
The department also warned people to watch out for cow patties left at the scene.
