The animals disrupted traffic and alarmed homeowners Tuesday before officers corralled them on a tennis court. More than a dozen police cars and a police helicopter were used in the roundup.
“The way I feel right now, I’m giving them all away,” owner Gerald Berg said. “They’re going to the slaughterhouse.”
