NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass. (WPRI) — A bull that escaped from a rodeo this past weekend at the Emerald Square Mall was captured on Monday night, not far from where the animal made its initial escape.

A total of eight bulls escaped on Sunday . One was caught quickly and six others were rounded up behind a home on Prescott Street in Attleboro, according to the North Attleboro Fire Department.

People working with the rodeo searched for the bull for hours on Monday, walking around carrying ropes and even riding on horseback.

The remaining bull was captured and loaded back onto a trailer around 8:15 p.m. on Route 1, a short distance from the mall.
