A cow got loose in Queens, sending police officers on a wild chase.
The animal escaped from a slaughterhouse in Jamaica early Thursday afternoon.
Dashcam video posted to Twitter showed the cow running through the intersection at 164th Street and Jamaica Avenue.

After officers cornered it in the parking garage, the animal was corralled and led into a trailer.
It was then returned to Archer Halal Live Poultry across the street from the car lot.
According to published reports, the animal got loose one day before its scheduled slaughter, police on the scene said.

Look at how they have this tight rope around its neck! THAT’S HUMANE but sh’chita is inhumane!
Hypocrites!!!!!
This clip is so funny!
What would you expect the cow to do knowing that tomorrow he’s hallal meat!!
A very mooooving story
When a cow escaped a slaughterhouse in Baltimore in June 2014 the cops chased it down and shot it like cowboys.
Cowboys
The rope has nothing to do with the method of slaughter. It is being used to recapture the cow.
FYI Halal slaughter is almost identical to Shechita. If fact, many Muslims who cannot obtain Halal meat with purchase Kosher meat instead.
Hey Moose613, that’s obvious that the rope was used to recapture the poor runaway heifer. The point was it seems quite inhumane – just look at the picture! And his running away, he don’t want to satiate no moose-leem appetite! You get that, no??
