A Field Day on the Highway
Centenary College Police Officer Todd Field and another officer gave chase when this baby goat ran into heavy traffic on East Kings Highway in Shreveport this afternoon.  Â
Officer Field thought about writing the goat a ticket, but then reconsidered because it’s just a kid.Â
The owner of the goat has yet to come forward. Call Centenary Police if this is your goat.Â
The officers nicknamed the goat, “Hobo”.Â
Awe, look at it all snuggled up there.Â

Someone said that it was calling for its mom Colleen!! I’m sure it wants to go back home to Texarkana!

Funny, Sparky. Someone in the newsroom said it was your dog.
A woman from Haughton just came forward tonight and says she’ll be a foster goat parent for the goat. She already has a pygmy goat and will relinquish custody when the owner comes forward.

Good thing the officer didn’t have to use force… I would have hated to report a story on a goat being “billy” clubbed! Would have been GRUFF!!

I just wish we had been there with a camera when Officer Field was chasing the goat in heavy traffic on E. Kings Hwy. I asked him, “Did you use a rope?” Officer Field: “No, I just caught him with my hands.”
Good to see you here again, LindsAy. I knew the mere mention of livestock on the loose was irresistable to you!
Sparky, Trish, credford, CT–ROL!
