Cop Wins Match With Bull Here
Animal Frightens West End Residents, But Is Halted By Officer
A police lieutenant "bulldogged" a bull that strayed from its owner on the way to the slaughterhouse Monday afternoon and charged about the Western Cemetery at Seventeenth and Jefferson Streets until the cop turned cowboy.
A large crowd of children ran out of the Jefferson Branch of the Louisville Free Public Library and stood a few feet from the bull, it was said, and frightened neighbors called police. Lieut. Ambrose Hopkinson of the Fourth District marched up with his club in the air and the animal got ready to run away, he reported, whereupon he took the bull by the horns and threw it to the ground.
The owner arrived in time to put a halter on the bull's neck while the officer was wrestling with the beast, it was said.
