Miniature goat breaks into Alabama deputy’s squad car and munches all his paperwork
An Alabama sheriff deputy dropping off paperwork at someone’s home was ambushed by two miniature goats that were inside his vehicle chowing down on all his paperwork.
‘Are you kidding me!’ Get out of here!, Madison County deputy Casey Thrower griped when he returned to his squad car and saw the wild animals,’ Fox News5 reported.
‘There’s nothing to eat in there. C’mon!’ he moaned, ‘Don’t eat that!.’
In the background you can hear shuffling around, and sounds from his police radio, as the sheriff sighs in frustration.
The dark-colored goat with its curved hoofs is seen wedged between the driver’s seat and the steering wheel, looking at the car’s dashboard, as the sheriff yells: ‘Quit eatin’ that. Get out here!’
Meanwhile, the light-haired, blue-eyed goat is standing on the roof of the police car: ‘Are you crazy?,’ the deputy yells.
The miniature goat with his horns erect mid-air cocked his head at the deputy and appeared unfazed unsure what all the fuss was about.

The humorous exchange took place on Friday while Thrower was dropping off civil papers to a home. He recorded the incident.
According to the sheriff’s department, the deputy often leaves his car doors during his run, in case he needs to bolt quickly should a dog attack.
The deputy gained possession of his vehicle after he managed to shoo the goats away.
In April, another goat made headlines in Florida, when it led police on a wild chase through a Florida apartment complex in Tallahassee before the officers were finally able to wrangle the animal.
The Tallahassee Police Department shared a video on YouTube of the escaped goat running loose from officers outside an apartment complex in the early hours of April 20.
‘Am I supposed to tackle a goat, are you crazy?’ a female officer asks at the beginning of the video. ‘That thing has got pointy things. I’m from New Jersey, we don’t see goats!’
Titled ‘The Escape,’ the next section of the video shows more attempts from local authorities to try and contain the goat to the tune of Bad Boys, the Inner Circle song used as the intro to the long-running TV show Cops.
‘Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?’ the song repeatedly plays while cops try to corral the goat.
Local authorities did not reveal how the goat got into the apartment complex in the first place or who owned the animal, but the animal was eventually trapped and captured.
