The Michigan State Police are trending, more specifically the Metro 2nd District and their Twitter feed – all because of a runaway cow.

It seems, this one cow, had a beef with being being confined to it’s pen and it busted out.  The trouble was, the farm that the cow did the jailbreak from, was near I-75, a pretty busy highway outside of Detroit. Running along the side of the road and sometimes into traffic, motorists were in an UDDER panic as they tried to MOOOVEEE over.  Here’s how it all went down.

So here is the skinny on the cow:

Eventually after much tom foolery, the critter was captured and removed from the freeway. Troopers reopened the freeway and things quickly got back to normal. The bovine was not charged and is back in the pasture with a story to tell all the other livestock. 4/
