The cow jumped... through the window

Spotted by Chuckles in The Local:

The cow had escaped from her field near Quickborn in Schleswig-Holstein on Wednesday, and wandered into the woman’s garden – where she spotted what she thought was another cow also on a midweek jailbreak.

Enraged, she charged into what was actually her own reflection in the window of the woman's house and crashed through the double glazing, police said on Friday.

Passersby who saw the smashed glass called the police, who arrived to find the cow calmly chewing cud in the kitchen with just a few scratches to show for her mix-up.

There was glass all over the floor and the window was completely destroyed – but the woman who lived in the house was not at home at the time.

"but the woman who lived in the house was not at home at the time."

Sounds like an intelligence failure. Lots of trouble brewing when the cow gets back to base.

AKH, but good psychological warfare though.
