The incident occurred at Pardeshi Wada in the Ravivar Peth area around 6 am, he said.
“Chased by stray dogs, a jersey cow entered the premises and climbed up to the third floor on a narrow wooden staircase,” a fire official said.
He said residents called the fire brigade after they couldn’t bring the bovine down.
“The cow could not be brought out from the staircase. As a last resort, we used a crane and safety belts to get it out safely,” the official said. PTI SPK ARU
