Las Vegas police and a pair of cowboys worked together to capture a bull that escaped its enclosure Sunday morning in the northeast valley.

Around 10:30 a.m., police responded to reports of a bull running loose near Betty Lane and East Owens Avenue, Lt. Brian Boxler said.

Boxler said at 11 a.m. that officers managed to corral the bull, and Animal Control was at the scene.

By noon, the bull’s owner had arrived and two cowboys lassoed the bull and loaded him into a trailer.

Betty and Owens were blocked off while police tried to wrangle the bull, but the streets have since reopened.
