A cow has lived to tell the tale after wandering on to a road and being hit by three vehicles.

Police said the unwitting animal was spotted on the A6006 Paddys Lane near Grimston in Leicestershire shortly after 05:30 GMT.

The force said despite being struck multiple times the cow was "OK" and no-one else was injured.

Officers closed the road while the cow was moo-ved out of danger and reopened it at about 07:10.
