Initially reported as a cattle theft in the RM of Hanover, has now been found to be a case of missing cattle, police say.

St-Pierre Jolys RCMP initially reported a cattle theft incident that occurred sometime between November 7 and 9, 2011, where five cows and a calf were reported stolen from a property in the RM of Hanover.

RCMP report now that five cows and a calf were located by the owner in a bush area approximately 1.5 miles from the pasture. Three cows and the calf have been captured and returned to the pasture.

Two cows still remain elusive.
