The smugglers also tried to hit the motorbike of a cow protection organisation's team, chasing them from Haryana- Punjab border.
Acting on a tip-off that some smugglers were taking cattle from Moga in Punjab to Muzaffarnagar, a team of Baldevnagar police station led by sub-inspector Om Prakash had put a barrier on the highway.
When the police team tried to intercept the truck of the smugglers they broke the barrier and attempted to flee, even as SI Om Prakash had a narrow escape. The police team followed and nabbed them near model town crossing.
Police have recovered 12 bulls from the truck, he said, adding the truck has been impounded.
