Cow corralled in parking garage, I-95 after escaping church nativity scene twice
OLD CITY (WPVI) -- A cow has been captured in an Old City parking garage after escaping a church live nativity scene for a second time. The cow was corralled earlier on I-95 in Northern Liberties.
The cow, nicknamed 'Stormy,' made her second escape out of Old First Reformed United Church of Christ in Old City around 6:20 a.m. Thursday.
At first, she got out into the churchyard and remained near the enclosure. However, moments later, 'Stormy' made her way onto Race Street right in front of the Action News crew.
Reverend Michael Caine tried to urge the 1,500 pound 'Stormy' back into the yard, as Action News reporter Katherine Scott called 911. Action News photographer Chuck Purnell alerted drivers of the cow in the roadway.
'Stormy,' a 7.5-year-old Hereford, then turned off Race and onto 4th Street.

(12,448 posts)12. Or she read the Bible
and saw there was no mention of cows specifically in that barn or whatever. Coupled with her atheism, that was the final straw. (No pun intended)
