SOMERSET NEWS: Cow falls into swimming pool

FIREFIGHTERS were called out last night (Saturday, April 12, 2014) after receiving reports that a cow had fallen into a swimming pool in Somerset.

One fire engine from Shepton Mallet was mobilised along with a specialist rescue team from Bridgwater to the scene at Gurney Slade, near Wells.

A spokesman for the Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service said: “Crews confirmed one cow was in the swimming pool and was not distressed.

“Crews waited for the local vet to attend to sedate the cow before crews released the animal from the pool unharmed.”
