Herd of Buffalo Disrupts Traffic in Md.
PIKESVILLE, Md. - A herd of buffalo somehow got loose and wandered around an upscale neighborhood Tuesday, disrupting traffic and alarming homeowners before officers managed to corral them in a tennis court.
More than a dozen police cars and a police helicopter were used to herd the roughly 10 beasts, authorities said. "Somehow they figured it out; I've got to give a lot of credit to the creativity of our officers," police spokesman Shawn Vinson said. Authorities have identified the owner of the buffalo but did not release the person's name immediately. Residents in the Baltimore suburb first reported that buffalo were meandering along the road about 7 a.m. Police shut down several major traffic arteries, including a section of the Baltimore Beltway, while they tried to anticipate which way the buffalo would roam. Officers eventually managed to maneuver the buffalo onto the tennis court about a mile from where they first were spotted. /tk

what would really have been funny is if at the tennis court Monica Seles was playing there and got trampled.
