Impromptu rodeo temporarily blocks I-70 in Jefferson County

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office says a stretch of Interstate 70 was closed Friday while deputies worked to wrangle an agitated cow.

The eastbound lanes were closed for about 30 minutes.

The cow was eventually loaded onto a horse trailer and taken to the Jefferson County fairgrounds.

The sheriff’s office told KMGH that the cow’s owner has been contacted and will not face any charges.
