BERLIN (Reuters) - German police deployed a helicopter Monday to track and kill a ferocious little pig after it attacked some cows, chasing one around a barn until it died.
The knee-high animal, described by police as a Siamese pot-bellied pig, entered the barn near the western German town of Geldern Monday morning.
"One cow died after being chased round the barn, and a second cow suffered bite wounds," said police spokesman Dieter Brauers. "We thought it might be infected with rabies because it was so aggressive."
Police launched a search for the pig, scrambling a helicopter, which located it in a nearby field. "We surrounded the field and a marksman killed it with a single shot," said Brauers.
