A herd of over 50 cows was swept away during a flash flood Friday, with dramatic video showed the cattle being carried downstream after a night of heavy rains slammed southeastern Minnesota.

Bob Eustice, a farm owner near the Zumbro River, told Fox 9 that it was his cattle that was carried off by an overflowing creek early Friday morning after officials say heavy rains overnight likely caused water levels to rise through the pastures where the cows were grazing.
