Under arrest

Yesterday a cow was arrested for murder in Cambodia. They say stranger things have happened but really, have they?

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia: A Cambodian cow was taken into police custody for causing traffic accidents that resulted in the deaths of at least six people this year, a police official said Tuesday.

The white, 1.5-meter (5-foot) tall cow was standing in the middle of a main road Monday night when a 66-year-old motorcyclist crashed into the animal and died. Most Cambodian roads are dark at night.

Earlier this year, the same cow was responsible for another traffic accident that resulted in the death of five people and several injuries, when a truck veered off the road and crashed as its driver tried to avoid the animal.

Pin Doman said he was holding the cow at his police station.

The cow's owner could also face a six-month prison term under a new traffic law that holds people responsible for accidents caused by their animals. (Source)

Snakes alive! It's a killer cow. Someone should call an animal rights group and get this cow a lawyer.
