[Cows sought after BMW vandalized](http://www.thestarphoenix.com/Cows+sought+after+vandalized/11212381/story.html) > [@](#): > > Police in Val-des-Monts, Que., are on the hunt for four cows after $1,000 in damage was caused to a BMW last week. > > Police said a man got up around 6 a.m. and noticed the cows congregating around his wife’s car in the driveway of his home. > > “There was some mark of drooling on the paint,” said Sgt. Martin Fournel. It also had a scratch in the paint and a damaged side mirror. > > By the time police got to the house, the cattle had fled the area. > > The owner of the cows could be fined for failing to contain them. I blame it on cut-backs at the agricultural schools. Without good before- and after-school programs, cows will just get into trouble. ---

Good thing is, they’ve got DNA. The police should check the database to see if they have any priors. ---

The cattle had _fled_ the area? No, I’m sorry. The cattle may have been there at one time, and they weren’t there any more. But they did not “flee”. At best they may have lumbered. ---
