SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) — A Louisiana sheriff’s deputy is recovering after being trampled and gored in the leg by a bull. It happened just after 2:30 p.m. Monday as Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Stock Patrol Sgt. Gary Bailey responded to calls from several drivers about a bull on the loose in south Shreveport. The sheriff’s office, in a news release, said the animal reacted aggressively and attacked Bailey when he tried to capture it. Meanwhile, cowboys from the Panola County, Texas, livestock auction captured the bull. Its owner has decided to have the animal sold at auction due to its aggressive behavior.
