Video: Police corral loose cow after senior prank at high school

How was my girl, Todd Bolter wasn't sure what to think when someone with *** Chicago phone number called him asking about his craigslist ad for cattle for sale. And I told my wife last night that I don't know if these guys are serious. 15 minutes before they got here. They called, we're 15 minutes out. They said yes, they're coming pretty soon. Four guys in *** Cadillac Escalade showed up pulling *** trailer. I really didn't think nothing of it. I thought cool. Some young guys interested in, you know, little far. So turns out those young guys might not have been as interested in farming as they were in pulling off *** top notch senior prank, *** prank that went terribly wrong. I was standing kind of by the truck and it looked like *** rodeo. We really saw *** cow. Police in Niles, Illinois were called at three AM. That was the true they had for what ended up being about *** several hour cow chase. Oh my gosh. They let it loose in town. The cow, the Bolter sold the night before for $700 had made it to the big time. The cows run creating major news in Chicago. The high schoolers actually got *** little bit of practice chasing down an animal before their ordeal with the cow. They had picked up *** pig before getting the cow and when they got here it got out and they had to spend about 45 minutes chasing it down in this field. I had my wife get *** musky net and they're running after it. They fell over third time. He got it and we picked it up and put it in the trailer, loaded the heifer up and where they went the next day. Bolter texted, well, wishes to his buyers noting it was *** memory. They'll never forget. Little. Did he know? I just hope they didn't get in trouble because I really like the kids in Winne County. Ben Krumholz Fox. I love the news.
