CHINA, Maine (AP) - Authorities in Maine are investigating whether reports of cows being released at farms in China are related to a similar incident that occurred in Clinton.
Kennebec County Sheriff’s Deputy Aaron Moody tells The Kennebec Journal (https://bit.ly/2h9zPoD ) a farmer reported Tuesday he discovered that some of his cows had been released from a pen. One lock was discovered broken and another was missing.
Moody says an incident occurred “in the last week or so” in which an unspecified number of cows were released from a pen at a farm.
He says authorities have not ruled out the possibility that the China cases are linked to a case in Clinton, where hundreds of cows were released from their pen at a farm last week.
Police are looking into possible suspects and motives.
