Bull Totals Car After Falling Off an Embankment

JOSEPH, Ore. — This may be a new one for the insurance company: A 2,000-pound bull falls and totals a woman’s car.
Elizabeth Hanks was driving on a narrow, winding road in the mountains when she noticed two black angus range bulls sparring on an embankment 20 feet above her car.
“The last thing I remember is the bull coming in through the windshield, and then I don’t know--I must have lost consciousness for a few minutes,” the 71-year-old woman said. “It was a lot of bull and a lot of shattered glass.”
Hanks was treated at the hospital for a bump on the head. The bull suffered a broken foreleg and other injuries and had to be killed.
