A BULL which was on the loose near Rugby has been shot dead.
Police said the bull, which was on the loose near Rugby Road heading into Brinklow, presented a danger to the public.
After considering options with a vet and a local farmer, the decision was taken for a trained farmer to shoot the bull dead.
A police spokesperson said: “This decision was not taken lightly.
“However, the risk to the public, road users and those dealing with the situation was considered too high for any other course of action to be considered.”
