Just as I’m getting into my cruiser this afternoon, I hear Officer John Metzo check in over the radio. He’s out on a call he was dispatched to. “Good luck,” dispatch replies.
“Good luck?” I mutter, eyebrows raised. That’s odd. My curiosity gets the better of me, and I pull up the call details.
Location: Root Rd, just north of Lorain Rd. “A cow fell out of a truck. ”
Wait.
. . what?
I am *so* en route. When I get there, it’s exactly as reported: a cow—completely unharmed—has made a great escape from a truck trailer and is clearly on a mission. Officer Ryan Jones arrives, and now we’re both in a standoff with what I’m now certain is the fastest cow in Lorain County.
Full disclosure, my cow-wrangling experience is pretty limited, but this cow is giving us a run for our money. We go left, he goes right. We go right, he goes left.
What happened next changed everything…
