HAMILTON TOWNSHIP, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- New Jersey state troopers helped corral a wayward bull that was walking along Interstate 195 in Hamilton Township Sunday.

The young black bull was spotted around 8:15 a.m. Sunday on the shoulder of I-195 near the junction with Route 130.

"Yes, the troops had to slow down traffic so the cowboys could wrangle this guy into a trailer and bring him home. It took a while, but the bull was removed without incident or injury," state police said on Facebook. "Just another day for the troops at Hamilton Station."
