Bank fees are enough to upset anyone, but workers and customers at a Bank Leumi branch in the industrial zone north of Lod were treated to an unusual display of dissatisfaction on Monday when a bull entered the establishment.

The bull charged a few cars in the parking lot, then proceeded inside the bank, where it disrupted the morning's business.

After approximately half an hour, during which workers tried to push the animal out, the bull's owner was located and arrived at the branch to collect the upset bovine. The bull was tied up and a veterinarian was called in to be ready to tranquilize him in the event he escaped.

Bank Leumi issued a statement on the unusual incident: "Early this morning, a bull entered one of Bank Leumi's office buildings in Lod. He was caught, and led outside the facility. Meanwhile, the incident was reported to local authorities and the municipal veterinary services. No one was injured and no damage was caused."
