Photo Of Saturday's Murdered Fort Worth Freeway Bull

That is, supposedly, a picture of the bull that was murdered this past Saturday after it somehow got onto Interstate 30, in my neighborhood, managing to tie up traffic on both sides of the freeway as it ran in a panic.

I thought this took place in daylight. Maybe the picture was taken after dark, with the crime scene still in place and the bull not yet taken to the morgue.

This does not appear to be a very big bull. It looks more like a deer than a big ol' bull.

I have yet to read where the bull came from, how it escaped and how it came to be running down the freeway. Or who the owner is.

Many people are wondering why, since Fort Worth is known as Cowtown, a more appropriate way of stopping the bull, like a cowboy on a horse wielding a lasso, was not used to get the scared bull under control.

I believe some shots were taken with tranquilizer darts, to no avail, which led to bullets being used.

This is the second, or is it third, instance of a bovine creature running amok here in Fort Worth within the past year.

We really need to make it less easy for bulls to get on the freeway, here in Fort Worth, when they get into escape mode. Other towns seem to do a better job of keeping their livestock penned up and off their freeways.
