WENATCHEE, Wash. -- A Michigan couple whose mini-van was crushed by a falling cow near Lake Chelan has been flooded with interview requests from TV stations and newspapers from across the country.
Charles Everson, Jr. and his wife Linda were driving on Highway 150 Sunday about one mile east of Manson in Chelan County when a cow fell about 200 feet off a cliff and landed on the hood of their van.

A 600 pound cow fell 200 feet from a cliff near Manson, WA, landing on this minivan driven by Charles Everson, Jr.
Everson, 49, and his wife are in Eastern Washington celebrating their first wedding anniversary this week.
"I'm like, 'I don't believe this, I don't believe this, I don't believe this,'" Everson told the Wenatchee World newspaper.
Officials say the cow was a heifer, estimated at weighing about 600 pounds.
Everson says “Good Morning America” and the “Today Show” asked he and his wife to appear on national TV. The couple declined.
The owners of the cow live in Spokane County. They call "Michelle" a "valued pet and companion". Apparently, the cow was being kept at a breeding facility in August and escaped three weeks ago.
