In March 2007, a man was sentenced to five days community service and two years of probation for his role in the death of a $3,500 Scottish Highland cow at a farm on Weaver Hill Road in Spring Township. The man and three friends were inebriated and hunting for deer, which resulted in the death of the cow.
