Police arrest killer cow Fri Jun 10,10:04 AM ET news.yahoo.com LAGOS (Reuters) - Nigerian police have arrested a cow that killed a bus driver who was urinating on a highway, a police spokesman said Thursday. The horned African cow, which was wandering stray in the Ojo district of Nigeria's biggest city Lagos, also injured several bystanders after killing the man. "The cow went mad, ran into a bus driver and knocked him down. Efforts to revive him were fruitless," said Lagos police spokesman Olubode Ojajuni. Some people suggested the animal be shot, but the district police officer ordered it to be taken alive. "You know what it will take to arrest a mad cow?" one newspaper quoted a policeman as saying. "We applied ingenuity and arrested the cow, which is now being detained at the station," he said without going into details. Ojajuni said police were seeking the cow's owner to press charges for failing to keep it under control.
