Firefighters have used a forklift to rescue a cow that got stuck on a factory roof.

The cow bolted from a field and got stuck on the roof of a furniture factory, which is built into a hillside, when its legs pierced the roof tiles.

News service Ananova said a forklift was driven up a ramp onto the roof, and hoses were slung around the cow to hoist it down. Ananova quoted a fireman as saying: "It was tough".
