A rogue cow caused a giant commotion Tuesday as it ran wild through the streets of the Queens borough of New York City.
The Dear Utol: Week 1 Highlights Episode 7spotted outlaw was first spotted on Archer Ave and Sutphin Blvd at around 10:30 a.m., possibly having escaped a nearby slaughterhouse along Archer Ave near York College. Queens cows are smartening up because this is the third cow in Queens to escape a slaughterhouse within the last 14 months, according to Gothamist.

People on social media and IRL were captivated by the intense chase while police were in hot pursuit.
For almost two hours, the cow evaded officers armed with tranquilizer equipment and generally caused a raucous as authorities repeatedly tried and failed to corral the animal.

Captivating. Absolutely captivating. This seems to be a metaphor for something, but we can't quite put our finger on it.
