Jerry Lynn Davis, 138 Ferrell Lane, Rogersville, told the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office Thursday that cattle had damaged his home by ripping off a screen window, cracking the glass and pulling down a gutter. The damage was estimated at around $100.
“According to Mr. Davis the incident occurred sometime during the prior night,” HCSO Deputy Chris Funk stated in his report. “He said the fence is approximately two feet from his home and cattle have been ‘poking their heads through and licking the side of the house.’ ”
The owner of the cattle only uses the pasture adjacent to the Davis house every few years and Davis told the deputy it’s usually not a problem.
Davis said he was unable to contact the owner and asked Funk to do so, which Funk said he was able to do.
Funk said the owner of the cattle agreed to look into the problem and make sure it doesn’t happen in the future.
