The suspect fled the scene during a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/two-killed-after-shooting-wounding-police-officer-during-traffic-stop-in-san-antonio\/\" title=\"Two Killed After Shooting, Wounding Police Officer During Traffic Stop In San Antonio\">routine traffic stop<\/a>, and police were unable to track him down. Fortunately, the cattle were not pleased to have the suspect in their pasture and led police directly to him.<\/p>\n<h3>The Incident<\/h3>\n<p>On May 9, police pulled the suspect over as part of a routine traffic stop. The suspect fled and led Boone police and Watauga County Sheriff\u2019s deputies on a street chase. The suspect was driving erratically, so police could not get close to him. The suspect pulled off the highway near an intersection in nearby Deep Gap and fled into undeveloped land.<\/p>\n<p>It was then that the cows came in. \u201cApparently cows do not want suspected criminals loitering in their pasture and quickly assisted our officers by leading them directly to where the suspect was hiding,\u201d the release said. \u201cThe cows communicated with the officers as best they could and finally just had the officers follow them to the suspect\u2019s location.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Suspect<\/h3>\n<p>The suspect was charged with 1 count of Felony Fleeing\/Eluding Arrest with a Motor Vehicle, Driving with a Revoked License, and Disorderly Conduct. A $20,000 bond was set ahead of his court date. The press release thanked the officers, and the cows, for their assistance.<\/p>\n<h3>The Future of Bovine Crime Fighting<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThis opens up all kinds of questions as to the bovines\u2019 role in crime fighting,\u201d police joked. \u201cHonestly, it is something that we have not considered before now. As we examine the obvious next steps of incorporating a Bovine Tracking Unit into our department\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jonathan-emord-the-dhs-disinformation-board-and-the-attack-on-individual-sovereignty\/\" title=\"Jonathan Emord: The DHS Disinformation Board and the Attack on Individual Sovereignty\">law enforcement capabilities<\/a> there are many factors that we will have to consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How adaptable are cows to a variety of police work or can they just find hiding suspects?<\/li>\n<li>Are cows more cost-effective than K-9 dogs?<\/li>\n<li>How will we transport cows to the scenes, and is this compatible with the Town\u2019s sustainability goals in terms of types of vehicles needed and, obviously, are there methane issues?<\/li>\n<li>Cost of training, vet care, ballistic vests, etc.?\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cWe at the Boone Police Department are always looking for better ways to serve our community,\u201d the release concluded. \u201cWe may be a small town; but we are a progressive, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/justice-isbovine-herd-of-cows-helps-round-up-criminal-in-north-carolina\/\" title=\"Cows aid in capturing criminal in North Carolina.\">forward-thinking law enforcement agency<\/a>.

Body cam footage included with a Facebook post showed two officers responding to what they believed were human cries. \u201cI think that\u2019s a person,\u201d one of the officers says. \u201cThat\u2019s a person,\u201d the officer repeats. In the distance, a sound that appears to be someone shouting can be heard; the officers run toward the sound. \u201cIt\u2019s a goat,\u201d the officer in front says. The two officers run through some trees and come upon the farm, where the goat can be heard bleating discontentedly, in a way that sounds like \u201chelp.\u201d \u201cAww, it is,\u201d the officer laughs.<\/p>\n<p>Stay up to date with the latest news by downloading the Daily Wire app.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police in North Carolina got a helping hoof this week when a herd of cattle aided in the roundup of a suspect on the run.
