LAGOS, Nigeria – One of Nigeria's biggest daily newspapers reported that police implicated a goat in an attempted automobile theft. In a front-page article on Friday, the Vanguard newspaper said that two men tried to steal a Mazda car two days earlier in Kwara State, with one suspect transforming himself into a goat as vigilantes cornered him.

Well, someone had to be the scapegoat!

Will the goat be found guilty at the trial? “Nyaah!”

So it was a sheep shot?

Good grief! How can such a culture progress in the modern world?

Seems we find ourselves on the horns of a dilemma.

The old transform-yourself-into-a-goat trick. So simple, so predictable, yet it always seems to work, that’s the frustrating thing.

Don't laugh -- demorats turn themselves into genuine jackasses the instant they get elected to office. Even before, actually.

From the Lagos police bleater....

I think the *real* perp probably hoofed it out of there.

The local authorities called in a foreign investigator, McGruff, but he turned out to be a distant relative of the suspect.

Police grilled the subject for several hours...

What a coincidence. A goat is mentioned in this Hitler rant on YouTube.

Not only is the kind important here, but also the age.
Was it an OLD goat?
