Thief Steals $75,000 Worth of Bull Semen

`Someone stole $75,000 worth of bull semen from a Frederick County farm, the sheriff’s office says. Eric Fleming said the six small canisters of frozen semen taken from a liquid nitrogen tank represented four to five years of collection work.

He said he had planned to sell it and use the proceeds to expand his breeding herd of shorthorn beef cattle.

“I’m so depressed about this that I probably will get out of the cattle business,” Fleming said Tuesday.’
