Jay Terrado, head of San Jose's Animal Care Services, says his team just learned about the situation this week with summer being a very busy season for his units. They are now investigating several properties in the area with cattle on it.
They have asked one owner to look into whether they're his cows that are wandering into the neighborhood at night. The owner has been given time to look into the situation or face a fine.

Residents say they need a solution fast or things can start to get dangerous.
"The cow just ran over and I had to apply brakes and I was scared that I don't hit the cow," said Gaur.
Animal Care Services has deployed units to the neighborhood to track down where the animals are coming from.
