NEWARK, N.J. (NEWSnet/AP) — A loose bull on the tracks at a New Jersey train station delayed rail traffic on Thursday.

The animal was off the tracks at Newark Penn Station by afternoon, New Jersey Transit said in a statement. The agency posted on X, formerly Twitter, a photo of the horned bovine standing on the tracks.

It’s unclear how the bull got there.

The transit agency wrote that service is delayed up to 45 minutes between Newark and Penn Station New York because of “police activity.” 

Newark police said there were no injuries reported.
