Surrey police officer cleared to return to duty after ramming a loose cow with a patrol car.

A Surrey police officer who rammed a loose cow with a patrol car in June has been cleared to return to duty. The incident sparked over 2,000 complaints and intense scrutiny, but an investigation reviewing 250 videos and 75 witness statements concluded the actions were lawful and necessary to prevent public harm. The cow, a 10-month-old calf, survived and is back with its herd. Police will review their protocols for handling loose livestock.
