COLUMBIA, Tenn. -- Dogs often assist cops in criminal investigations, but it was a herd of cows who recently helped nab a murder suspect in Tennessee. During the manhunt for Parker Ray Elliott, a state parks employee who was searching near a farm in Maury County noticed a bunch of cows looking in the direction of a wooded area. When police searched the brush, they found the suspect. Parks employee Shane Parker tells "The Tennessean," "I knew those cows should have been looking at me, since I had just come in the area, but they were looking over into the woods, so I knew that's where he was."
