Herd of cows trample woman's car

A woman was treated for shock after her car was trampled by a herd of cattle.

Barbara Epps, 52, was driving to work when six cows stampeded into her £9,000 Toyota Yaris near Edge in Gloucestershire.

Some of the animals stamped over the vehicle's bonnet and roof as the startled motorist cowered inside.

Mrs Epps, from Quedgeley, escaped without injury and was treated for shock by paramedics - but her car was left mangled.

She said: "I was just driving along when all of a sudden these cows came hurtling out of a garden and flew over the car then crashed onto the road.

"Some came over the bonnet and others went right over the roof. I can still see their faces smashing into the glass as the windscreen shattered."
