The westbound lanes of Interstate 40 in west OKC have been shut down due to cows on the lam.
Authorities have shut down the interstate just west of N. Meridian Ave as crews work to wrangle up the wayward cattle. So far it is unclear how the animals got loose.
Several News 9 viewers wrote in by email and social media to report seeing the cows on the highway.
@NEWS9 cow running down the middle of I-40 westbound by Meridian followed by eight police cars. No joke.
