The cow New Cumberland clamored for has lost its head to vandalism.

Police are searching for the culprit who took a saw to "Balanced Diet," a fiberglass bovine that was one of 136 cow statues decorating the midstate in an outdoor art project this spring.

The vandalism, the most serious since CowParade Harrisburg 2004 began in late March, was reported at 1 a.m. yesterday. To make matters worse, the 100-pound painted cow, sponsored by Karns Food Ltd., had only been in town since Friday.

"I'd like to know why this one was picked," said Police Chief Oren "Bud" Kauffman III. The cow stood in a lighted area outside Baughman Memorial United Methodist Church at Third and Bridge streets.

1. That's crazy.

They should have trimmed off the brisket. Much better eating than the head.

2. Should that be "Terrorists...,"

not vandals. Every thing is a terrorist act since 9/11.
