SUMMARY: Three bison escaped from a nearby farm in Franklin County, wandering through a Saint Alban neighborhood and injuring a woman who was gored in the leg. The 2,000-pound animals roamed yards and cul-de-sacs for hours, initially calm but later aggressive. Due to safety concerns after the attack, officials decided to euthanize all three bison, ending the tense confrontation. Neighbors expressed sadness over the incident in their usually quiet community. The bison remains were removed with plans to process them for various uses. Cleanup concluded as residents hoped to return to normalcy after the unsettling event. Help is needed to prevent similar incidents.

Tuesday afternoon, officials shot and killed 3 bison after they escaped from their owner. According to Franklin County Sheriff Steven Pelton, deputies were called to the area of St. Albans and Bassett roads around 1:15 p.m. Concerned neighbors described several times when the animals were nearly corralled before being spooked and running off. The owner was injured, officials say.
