A viral video shows the moment that a Nebraska man was pulled over for having a huge bull with large horns riding shotgun in his car.
Around 10 a.m. on Wednesday, a man driving a sedan car with a large bull in it was pulled over while driving eastbound on Highway 275 by an officer with the Norfolk Police Department. Police made a traffic stop of a man driving a huge Watusi bull in the passenger seat.
The driver had a vehicle with the roof and windshield cut out on the passenger side to fit a huge bull. There was also a guard rail on the passenger side to hold the massive animal inside the car.
According to Yahoo, “The passenger side door had been replaced with a metal barred guardrail that’s usually found in a cattle enclosure, photos show.”
News Channel Nebraska reported, “The occupant of the vehicle was identified as Lee Meyer of Neligh. The Watusi bull’s name was Howdy Doody. Lee was immediately pulled over by Norfolk Police as they performed a routine traffic stop.”
“The officers received a call referencing a car driving into town that had a cow in it,” Norfolk Police Division Captain Chad Reiman explained. “They thought that it was going to be a calf, something small, or something that would actually fit inside the vehicle.”
“As a result, the officers performed a traffic stop and addressed some traffic violations that were occurring with that particular situation,” Reiman said.
“The officer wrote him some warnings,” Reiman added. “There were some citable issues with that situation. The officer chose to write him a warning and ask him to take the animal back home and leave the city.”
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) joked about the huge bull in the car, “Maybe he just needed some help ‘steering.'”
Howdy Doody is known for appearing in parades in Nebraska.
