BRYANT PARK, NY - Earlier this month Cow Ticker was involved in an
attempted robbery. Although the efforts of the brigands ultimately
proved unsuccessful, one of the cow's hooves was broken in the process.
Cow Ticker is now in the Medical Center at 230 Park Avenue
undergoing repairs. A team of fibergalss specialists will work around
the clock to repair the damaged hoof in the coming days. The hoof will
be patched with additional layers of fiberglass and then the artist will
be called in to complete the touch-up work.
Cow Ticker, sponsored by Reuters America Inc., has been on display
in Bryant Park since early June. Bryant Park is considered by many to
be one of the safer locations in the city for cows.
