NFU’s Hugh Broom says incident in Surrey ‘looks horrendous’ but the cow could have hurt someone
Officers who hit an escaped cow with a car “probably did the right thing at the time” even if it looks “horrendous”, a union leader and farmer has said.
A video showing a police car hitting the calf on Friday night on a residential street in Staines-upon-Thames was met with widespread outrage, including from the RSCPA which criticised the move as “disproportionate”.
