A wayward bull succumbed to injuries suffered in a single-vehicle accident early this morning north of Salina.
A 17-year-old Bennington boy was northbound in the 1900 block of N. Ohio Street when the 2011 Chrysler 300 he was driving struck a "very large" black bull in the roadway, Saline County Undersheriff Brent Melander said this morning. The accident occurred shortly before 2 a.m. Wednesday.
The teen was not injured, however, the car sustained extensive damage and had to be towed, Melander said.
The bull was believed to be an Angus, however, it had no tags or markings. Deputies checked the immediate area, but no one claimed the deceased bovine, Melander said.
Anyone with information about who owns the bull is asked to contact the Saline County Sheriff's Office at (785) 826-6500, Melander said.
