SOUTH JORDAN, Utah – Police in South Jordan had to use Tasers to tame a bull that escaped from its owner and knocked over an 80-year-old man. South Jordan police Lt. Dan Starks said a bull escaped from its owner Wednesday in the Salt Lake City suburb and that others in the area tried to help corral it. The bull knocked over an 80-year-old man who was trying to help.

Police arrived and ended up using their Tasers to subdue the animal. Eventually the owner was able to get the bull into a trailer.

The man who was toppled by the bull suffered a cut and some bleeding. He went to a hospital as a precaution.

The bull is now planning to sue.

ouch! When I think about bulls I always think about the old tradition of the running of the bulls.

Man that just sucks what happened in this story. :(

I would have thought that tasering a bull would just make it really mad.

It's really not that unusual to be honest, I used to live near one when I was in South Florida.

on another note... who would ask an 80 year old man for help with taming a bull....
