Cows roaming the yards of one west-side neighborhood have residents mad they can’t keep them out of the streets.
They said they have already seen one car totaled because of cattle hitting the streets.
On Wednesday neighbors in the Oak Creek Estates subdivision off Loop 1604 near Westover Hills tried to corral a cow that got out of a pasture nearby.
They say they’ve called police, but nothing is done.
"How many times we've called them over the last 2 years, I mean it’s unbelievable,” said homeowner Joery Zabava.
Zabava says last year a cow went out onto Loop1604 and was hit by a police car. It totaled the vehicle.
You can see the waste in everyone’s yard where the animals roam in and out through the fence whenever they please.
Now neighbors worry someone else will run into the cattle and cause serious injuries.
Adrian Adair said, "Someone hits it or someone veers away from the cow when the kids are at the bus stop, then it could be dangerous."

Animal Control tried to help out trying to catch the cow, but it would just slip through the barbed wire fence and get away. They said that once the cattle goes back onto their property there is nothing they can do. But if they catch it while its roaming the streets they can keep it until someone claims it and most likely the owner will be fined.
