A bull escaped from a butcher's knife and took refuge in a hospital emergency ward, interrupting medical procedures for nearly 45 minutes, a news report said Sunday. The big white bull tore away from a butcher as it was about to be slaughtered on a busy city street, and charged up a ramp into the emergency ward of nearby Dhaka Medical College Hospital, the daily Ittefaq newspaper reported. "The bull was running around like crazy, and we were all scared," Shahin Mollah, a witness, was quoted as saying.
| Prob'ly not as scared as the bull... |
As patients, doctors and nurses screamed and ran in panic, guards chased the animal out of the building and into the hospital's morgue. The frightened animal was then caught and returned to the butcher. |
