From all of us at the California Highway Patrol, Happy Thanksgiving and safe traveling.

2.  COW SCULPTURE STOLEN ON LORING

We live on the 500 block of Loring Avenue and Friday morning, November 21st our beloved COW on our front lawn was stolen. We have the cow tied to a tree on a chain and someone cut the chain with bolt cutters. This has been a fixture on Loring for 15 years and Warner kids take pictures with the cow and so many children are upset about this cow. This was well planned because of the bolt cutters and the size of the cow requires more than one person and also requires a truck, it’s life size!

If anyone has any leads please contact us.
