"Cow gang attack German couple"

From the Austrian Independent:

A German couple have told how they were attacked by cows after travelling more than 800 kilometres to spend a stress-free holiday in the Austrian Alps...

The man said: "We wanted to walk to a nearby pub after arriving on Friday night when suddenly ten cows surrounded us. I unleashed our dog so she can escape. My wife suffered serious bruises when the cows attacked her. She eventually managed to lock herself in the hut, while I jumped into our car."

He added the cows damaged his car before they eventually made a move. His wife needed treatment at a clinic in Tamsweg, Salzburg. The couple decided to continue their stay despite the unpleasant incident.

Glorious. The man's not-quite perfect English is icing on the cake.

If you'd like to read a slightly fuller version in German, look no further than here, from which we learn further juicy facts, such as their names being Matthias E. and Angela V. (the first article said they did not want to be named); they are both aged 33 (the first article says he was 42); their dog was called Planto; the woman sustained her injuries jumping over a fence while escaping (rather than in the attack itself); and their car, a BMW 530, was a write off.
