East Bridgewater Police Officers Help Safely Corral Loose Cow
EAST BRIDGEWATER — Chief Michael Jenkins reports that East Bridgewater Police officers safely corralled a female cow that was loose in town Wednesday morning.
On Wednesday, Sept. 4, at about 9 a.m., East Bridgewater Police Officer Robert Lang was driving through the area of Belmont and Summer streets when he saw a woman on a horse chasing after a loose cow.
The owner of the cow also called police to notify officers that her cow, named Boots, had gotten loose from a corral from her farm on Summer Street.
East Bridgewater Police Deputy Chief Mike McLaughlin, Sgt. John Smith and Officers Joshua DeJesus, Matthew Monteiro and Patrick O’Brien responded to the scene and assisted in helping to corral the animal.
There were minor disruptions to traffic during the incident when the cow got near the road at Belmont and Summer streets. There was also minor damage caused to some lawns in the area.
Officers and farm staff were able to safely capture the cow after about two-and-a-half hours toward the back of Beaver Cemetery using a rope lasso and food. The cow was guided onto a trailer and safely returned to the farm.
“I am happy to report that our officers were able to help safely capture the cow without injury to themselves or the animal,” Chief Jenkins said.
I was driving my daughter Lila to her swimming lesson when we spotted a cow wandering down the main road. A thick rope was tied around its neck, dragging on the pavement behind it. The cow was ambling along in the middle of the traffic, tail flicking lazily, while a line of cars followed cautiously, their drivers leaning out of windows to stare. A group of kids on bicycles had gathered at a safe distance, cheering and pointing as the cow nudged a stop sign with its head.
“Look, Mom!” Lila gasped, pressing her face against the car window. “City people are all scared of it! But you can handle anything, right You herded cows on Grandpa’s farm when you were a kid.”
I smiled, recalling the summer I’d spent on my grandfather’s dairy farm, chasing strays back into the pasture with a stick and a loud voice. “It’s just a lost cow, sweetie,” I said, “but we need to get you to swim class first. I’ll check on it after I drop you off.”
We inched past the cow, which lifted its head and let out a low moo as we passed. Lila waved, and the cow tilted its head as if waving back. I dropped Lila at the pool, promising to be back in an hour, then turned the car around to find the cow. By the time I got back to the main road, the traffic had cleared, but the cow was still there—standing in a patch of grass by the sidewalk, chewing on a dandelion. It was a reddish-brown cow, smaller than the Holsteins on Grandpa’s farm, with big, gentle eyes. And there was something about it, a skittishness in its posture, that made it different from the cows I’d known back home. It didn’t seem like a farm cow at all.
Paragraph 1: As I turned to leave, two police officers pulled up in a patrol car.
Paragraph 2: We tied the rope to a tree and discussed what to do with the cow.
