Runaway Cows Disrupt Vietnam Airport
Associated Press
HANOI, Vietnam - An airport in central Vietnam suspended plane traffic for two and a half hours because seven cows were blocking the runway, state-controlled media reported Saturday.
Two Vietnam Airlines flights from Danang to Ho Chi Minh City were delayed and two other flights from Hanoi to Danang were canceled Thursday night because the cows belonging to army units in the airport area broke free from their corrals and ran loose around the runway, the Lao Dong (Labor) trade union newspaper quoted Luu Van Hanh, director of the Vietnam Airlines office in Danang, as saying.
A Danang airport official said Saturday that flights resumed promptly after all the cows had been captured.
