The remaining three head of cattle missing after a cattle truck rolled on Interstate 135 south of Salina Tuesday morning have been found.

Saline County Sheriff's Captain Jim Hughes said this morning that a citizen in the area reported the cattle wandering around Thursday. With the help of the Saline County Sheriff's Mounted Patrol, the cattle were caught.

Hughes said that with the cattle that were rounded up at the scene of the accident, those that were put down because of injury, and the most recent three found, all of the cattle from the truck have been accounted for.

The rollover shut down southbound I-135 for multiple hours Tuesday. The accident was near milepost 86, the Mentor/Smolan exit.
