Bystanders watching a cattle drive in Colorado Springs got a little more of the wild west than they bargained for.

During the annual Ride for the Brand cattle drive downtown, a longhorn cow got loose and charged into the lobby of the Plaza of the Rockies building, scattering crowds and sending onlookers scrambling. One person was actually trapped inside the lobby with the cow for a few stressful moments, before a man rode his horse into the lobby, roped the cow and led it outside onto the street.

There have been no immediate reports of injuries from the incident.

The cattle drive is an part of the Ride the Brand Ranch Rodeo, which is happening in Colorado Springs this weekend at the Norris Penrose Events Center.
