<p>Police had to catch an unusual suspect on the run after a cow broke out of its field, charging through fences of three back gardens before it was finally cornered.</p>
<p>Nottinghamshire Police said it was &#8220;extremely lucky&#8221; nobody was injured after the cow escaped from a field in Bassingfield, Notts, on Wednesday and went on an hour-long rampage.</p>
<p>A spokesman said the animal broke through an electric fence at about 12.30pm and got on to the A52, heading towards West Bridgford, police said.</p>
<p>Officers tried to corner the cow but it charged at them, causing one to &#8220;take evasive action&#8221; to avoid injury.</p>
<p>It then smashed through fences behind three properties in Eltham Road, where it was finally cornered and calmed down by police and put into a trailer by the farmer at about 1.35pm.</p>
<p>PC Wendy Brown, one of the officers who caught the cow, said: &#8220;The animal was extremely agitated and we were considering whether we would need a vet to come out and sedate it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Thankfully we managed to calm it down enough to get it into a trailer.</p>
<p>&#8220;This was definitely one of the strangest incidents I&#8217;ve had to deal with and given the route the cow took, it was extremely lucky that nobody was injured.&#8221;</p>
<p>The lucky escape comes after Roger Freeman, 63, was killed when he and his wife were attacked by a bull as they walked along a public footpath through a livestock field in Stanford-on-Soar, Nottinghamshire, earlier this month.</p>
