Forget cowboy rodeos; police rodeos are the real deal. A bull came from an unknown slaughterhouse and galloped into Prospect Park, toppling over a one-year-old girl’s stroller and injuring her in the process. It then ran into a car before running into the Parade Grounds. There, the chase ended when the bull was hit by a tranquilizing dart and trapped between two vehicles. It was loaded into a New York Police Department truck and sent to Skylands Animal Sanctuary and Rescue in New Jersey.

Up she goes in a whirlwind of balloons, recalling childhood memories from the Pixar film, “Up.” British-Viennese artist Noemi Lakmaier was held up by 20,000 balloons in the Sydney Opera House for nine hours as part of her project, Cherophobia—the fear of happiness. The project was a part of Antidote, a festival meant to celebrate the arts in society. Despite this being a difficult stunt to pull off, she had done the same live installation in London, except she was held afloat for a total of 48 hours.

Spilled milk is not something to cry over, but poisoned milk might be. After being forced into an arranged marriage, Aasia Bibi plotted to kill her husband so she could be with her boyfriend, who supplied her with an unknown poisonous substance. She mixed it into her husband’s milk, which he refused to drink. Bibi’s mother used the tainted milk in a yogurt-based drink. The beverage was served to 27 relatives, 17 of whom died and the rest of whom are currently in a hospital.
