A bull spotted rampaging through the streets through city streets after escaping from a slaughterhouse has been rehomed by an animal sanctuary.
The stray bovine, thought to be around two years old, was safely contained by Birmingham City Council staff on Friday after being spotted by terrified passers-by in New Bond Street, Digbeth, shortly before 9.30am.
Shocking footage showed the bull charging down the pavement before running into the road and towards a busy roundabout, bringing traffic to a stop.
Council staff helped officers herd the bull into a nearby former Dunelm site where animal welfare and park rangers kept it and the public safe.
Taking to Facebook, one shocked passer-by wrote: 'What on earth is a bull doing in such a built up area.'
