Residents of a Kansas neighborhood said they were shocked and confused to wake up in the morning to find a small herd of cattle wandering through their yards.

"Nobody knew where they came from. I assumed that some truck turned over and they got off," neighbor Dale Schrag told KWCH-TV.
The Harvey County Sheriff's Office located the four steers and one heifer in the area and put out a call on Facebook for help identifying the owner of the bovine troop.
Eric Puttroff, the owner of the cattle, said they apparently escaped from their pen by knocking down a panel.
"Apparently they walked through a nice neighborhood, which you know, doesn't hurt bringing a little color to some of those neighborhoods sometimes," Puttroff said.Deputies and professional cattle wranglers helped Puttroff return the animals to his property.
