Traffic is back to its normal levels after a cow got out of its trailer and caused delays on James River Freeway.

Officials say the animal escaped near Campbell Avenue at around 5:00pm Tuesday afternoon, and was loose for almost an hour.

Cars were backed up as owners and crews tried to round up the cow.

He was eventuality apprehended and returned to the trailer around 6:00pm.
