BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - While you were sleeping Tuesday night, in one community police were literally counting sheep.
In the included picture, those are not santa's reindeer, rather sheep.
Police in Lackawanna say they escaped from a slaughterhouse on Ridge Road.
Police are not sure right now how many sheep escaped, but News 4 counted dozens.
As you can see in the included picture, they had their hands full trying to catch the animals, but in the end they were all caught.
Some cows also escaped.
Police caught all of them as well.
It's unclear how the animals escaped, or exactly how many got out.
Lackawanna police say they think someone broke in and let the animals out of the slaughterhouse.

Poor things. I eat meat, but I want to see it in the case at Tops NOT running down Ridge Road.
