Runaway Goat Cornered In Brooklyn Parking Lot – February 7, 2013 2/7/13 – NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — You goatta be kid-ding. A runaway goat was cornered in the parking lot of Brooklyn Interfaith Medical Center early Thursday, “I was just walking across the street to get some Popeye's, I come around the corner and the next thing I know I see a goat coming around my way, galloping toward me,” said a witness. The goat made his escape in the wee hours of the morning. An officer on patrol spotted him galloping down Atlantic Avenue wreaking havoc, and called for backup, reported WLNY's Amy Dardashtian. “Banging his head against two doors, to no avail, then it started running 'cause the cops were after it,” a witness said. Half a dozen officers gave chase, catching up with the escaped goat about a mile away on Herkimer Street, where it refused to surrender. It turns out though that a parking lot attendant from West Africa who was at the scene was a goat herder in his native country. “I told them 'Do not harm the animal, it's an easy animal, it's very friendly but it just was a little scared,'” Seydou Ndiaye explained. Ndiaye took a rope and formed a lasso, but the goat blew by him. A little while later, the animal was caught by the horns. It was tied up and loaded into the back of a police car.
