ALLIANCE, Ohio (WKBN) -- You don't want to report bull to a police officer.

But one person in Alliance called 911 this week to report suspicious activity of a man riding a bull, and the department dispatched an officer.

Ronald Hooks rushed to the scene and double checked with dispatch on the way that the call was about a real bull. He was told it was.

Hooks saw it for himself outside a hardware store and even got a much closer look than he ever expected.

Two minutes later, Hooks learned the bull's name was Gus. He accepted an offer to take a ride and climbed on top of Gus.

Hooks even had a picture taken with him riding the bull.

Gus was in the parking lot to promote a rodeo this weekend in Columbiana County.
