This sad sight greeted drivers and passersby yesterday morning at the junction of Sheriff and Duncan Streets. There was no sight of the vehicle and no indication as to the damage sustained. This is the danger posed to our road users every day and with the wet season currently, more and more animals will begin to look for higher ground and heat sources such as our roads. The Guardian hopes that the current delay in finalizing the many areas of concern regarding the role of stray catchers and legal implications will be sorted out soon. At the scene was another cow which appeared seriously injured.
Appearances at the scene indicate that the driver was heading east at a fast rate along Duncan street (one way) and upon approaching the Sheriff street junction - collided with the herd in the vicinity of the pedestrian crossing as can be observed in the image above. The lifeless cows were apparently placed at the side of the road by persons at the scene to avoid another collision involving unsuspecting drivers.
