A
St. Paul, Minnesota, man says the city hasn’t returned his 20-foot
fiberglass cow because it’s bolted to an impounded trailer for which he
doesn’t have a title. Police said the trailer and the larger-than-life,
black-and-white cow had been parked near Norb Anderson’s home when it
was towed to the city’s impound lot November 18th. Anderson, 77, says he
wasn’t home when the trailer and cow were towed and they were gone when
he returned November 23rd. The lack of title was an oversight, Anderson
said, and he didn’t abandon the $22,000 cow. “You think somebody just
leaves a cow in front of my house?” he asked. The owner of the cow and
trailer will have to pay more than $600 in towing and storage charges,
officials said. Someone has since claimed ownership and the police
department is trying to verify it. Police said people had complained
about the cow when it was parked in the street. Anderson says he didn’t
mean to upset the neighbors and he’s known as “the cow guy” who rents
the cow to businesses for use in advertising.
