OKLAHOMA CITY — An unrelenting goat tried to break into several homes in an Oklahoma City neighborhood.
Several neighbors thought they had a burglar trying to break into homes, but things aren't always what they seem.
Their neighborhood was being harassed by a big goat.
The goat was using its horns try and break into Edgar Cardoza's house, so Cardoza did the only thing he could think of — he called 9-1-1.
Police already had a few calls from others in the neighborhood.
"As we were driving to it, the homeowner where the goat actually was called in to say that a ram was trying to beat down his front door," said Lt. Jeff Spruill from the Oklahoma City Police Department. "We got there and it wasn't a ram, it was a goat, but it was trying to beat down his front door."
Edgar refused to come out of his house, so the goat turned his attention to police and charged them.
Several officers were finally able to catch the animal and return it to his owner.
