Three cows fell out of a trailer on Highway 99 on Tuesday; snarling traffic and prompting a low-speed pursuit of one of the cows.
Two Jersey cows and a Holstein fell out on northbound Highway 99 south of Briggsmore Avenue, said California Highway Patrol Sgt. Fabio Serrato.
The Jerseys wandered north and got off the highway, walked across the overpass and conveniently ended up at the agriculture department of the Modesto Junior College West Campus. They were caught by agriculture interns.
The Holstein continued south in the northbound lanes, where about a dozen police officers from the CHP, Modesto Police Department and animal control attempted multiple times to corral it.
