A video making rounds on social media showed a stray cow repeatedly attacking a woman in Gujarat’s Modasa. As per reports, the tragic incident happened on June 16, and the woman who sustained serious injuries was admitted to a hospital for treatment.
In the 42-second-long video, the stray animal can be seen approaching a couple on their bike near a petrol pump in Modasa. As the cow charged at the woman, she got off the motorcycle and started running to save her life. However, the cow chased her down and started hitting her repeatedly as she fell down and screamed. Though the woman’s husband did everything he could to stop the cow, the onslaught only ended when an employee from the nearby petrol pump came running with a stick and chased the cow away. The sudden attack by the cow made everyone present at the scene run helter-skelter to save their lives.
The footage of the incident has gone viral since then.
