City and county law officers used their vehicles to herd loose animals back to their pens this week.

First, it was bison. Six broke out of a pen on the Roy Hett farm northeast of Marion and were herded west from near the US-56 and K-150 junction before being turned back east to their pen at the Hett farm.

Then that afternoon 15 head of cattle broke out of a pen at the Bob Ehrlich farm at the north end of Cedar St. They were herded back to the farm, again by vehicles.
