First they tired to catch him with nets.
Then it looked like the plan was to tranquilize the animal, and cops moved the hundred or so onlookers from the perimeter of the baseball field at the Parade Grounds where the animal had been corralled to.
The bull was captured around 1:20pm using a lasso and taken away.
Update The ? was benched in the dugout prior to #ALCS game 4. He was safely removed to @NYCACC & will be cared for until a new home is found pic.twitter.com/HfEXkFliR9
