Cow cull over hiker’s scare

FARMERS had to kill half a herd of Highland cattle after they “pinned” a dog walker “against a wall”.

The 30-strong herd had roamed near a Peak District footpath, in Baslow Edge, Derbys, for 40 years.

But a health and safety probe told the owners to move them to another site, even though nobody was hurt in last year’s incident.

Stephanie Birch, of Gorse Bank Farm, said that was too costly, adding: “We had to sell half and send the other half to slaughter.”

SPLASHING down in the Atlantic Ocean, SpaceX’s Crew Dragon successfully caps its historic test flight.

The capsule plunged through the Earth’s atmosphere, deployed its four parachutes and landed in the water according to plan.

Crew Dragon, carrying no passengers except a dummy full of sensors, returned after undocking from the International Space Station. US astronaut Anne McClain said from the ISS: “America has driven a golden spike on the trail to new space exploration feats.”

It was the first time a privately built craft capable of carrying people has visited the ISS.

The US capsule splashed down around 280 miles from Cape Canaveral in Florida. The Dragon, owned by billionaire Elon Musk, has set the stage for US space agency NASA to approve the craft for crewed flights. ON SHIP After landing
