JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - It was a real stock car, but the driver was the only one racing. And he got away. Police in rural South Africa found two cows and two goats being transported in a compact car barely large enough for four people.
The blue Fiat Uno was impounded Thursday after residents alerted police in a town in northern KwaZulu-Natal, the South African Press Association reported.
Capt. Jabulani Mdletshe, a police spokesman, said that when the officers arrived, the driver had loaded the animals into his vehicle and was trying to speed away.
He eventually stopped the car after being unable to outrun the police, and fled into the nearby bushes, SAPA said. The cows and goats were handed over to an animal theft unit.
