El Dorado Hills firefighters keep cows cool after truck breaks down amid triple-digit heat
EL DORADO HILLS – Northern California firefighters helped keep cows cool by spraying them with water after the truck that was transporting them broke down on Saturday.
With triple-digit temperatures in the forecast, the El Dorado Hills Fire Department responded to Latrobe Road just south of White Rock when a truck broke down.
That truck was transporting cows in a trailer, which was sitting in direct sunlight.
Firefighters used hose lines to keep the cows cool.
"We are proud to serve our community," the fire department said.
