First responders in North Attleboro, Massachusetts had an unexpected challenge on their hands when eight bulls made a daring escape from a rodeo held in a mall parking lot. A video posted online captured the chaotic scene as the bulls charged through the parking lot, causing some damage along the way.
The bulls knocked down fencing, bumped into a tent, and even made their way towards a busy highway before eventually heading towards some nearby woods. Luckily, no one was injured during the wild breakout, but it certainly caused quite a stir in the area.
The North Attleboro Fire Department issued a warning to residents, urging them to exercise extreme caution and avoid approaching the bulls. These rodeo bulls were not to be messed with, and it was important to keep a safe distance from the animals.
By late Sunday afternoon, seven of the eight bulls had been corralled, but one was still on the loose. The Festival Rodeo at the Emerald Square Mall had to be shut down as officials worked to capture the remaining runaway bull. The incident was under investigation to determine how the bulls managed to escape in the first place.
It’s not every day that you see bulls charging through a mall parking lot in Massachusetts, but this unusual event certainly kept first responders on their toes. The community breathed a sigh of relief once the bulls were safely contained, but it was definitely a memorable day in North Attleboro.
