Seattle Police Wrangle Wild Goats
Published at(SEATTLE) — Police in Seattle were able to stop a wild situation before it got worse on Thursday, after 10 goats escaped from their yard.

The SPD did have fun with the incident though, mocking up a movie poster parodying that of the Steve McQueen classic The Great Escape.
