Goat Arrested on Suspicion of Armed Robbery
The black and white animal was turned in to police by a vigilante group, which claimed it was an armed car thief who had used black magic to transform himself into a goat to escape arrest after trying to steal a Mazda 323. "The group of vigilante men came to report that while they were on patrol they saw some hoodlums attempting to rob a car," Tunde Mohammed, a spokesman for Kwara state police, told Reuters. "They pursued them. However, one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat," he said. While Mr Mohammed said he could not confirm whether a man had, in fact, turned into a goat, he did admit that the animal was in police custody. A photo of the goat, resting on its knees next to a pile of straw, was published in Nigeria's Vanguard newspaper. Reports citing a different police spokesman said the animal was being held at the station until its owner came to claim it. Belief in witchcraft is widespread in parts of Nigeria. Many communities in Africa's most populous nation rely on vigilante groups to patrol neighbourhoods that are not served by police at night. |

Re: Goat Arrested on Suspicion of Armed Robbery
Damned goats! I always knew they couldn't be trusted. The first time I went to Nashville, TN, one of the first sites I saw from our bus was a man walking a goat on a city street. |
