Ok, so let me explain the whole thing... So I'm out working today and this guy in a van flags me down and says his daughter's boyfriend stole their other car. I get his information and some others start looking for the car. I'm out with this guy on the side of the road with a couple of deputies and a trooper when low and behold, the car drives right by us.

I chase him down and get him stopped, put him under arrest and then stick him in my car. We put his girlfriend in her dad's van and then proceed to question etc. While we're there, a goat and some chickens come up and start eating the registration for the guys van. I mean, talk about a bad day. So we had a stolen car, domestic and a livestock in the road call all wrapped in one. I guess you just never know what you'll run into out there.

see pics. lol

Thats the great thing about being in law enforcement, at the end of the day, the stories are priceless. You just can't make that stuff up, but you even have pictures. Stay safe.

That's classic! Great story.

For a few seconds I though the story was in Mexico. Goats and chickens in the road ........

Whos in the fudge round suit? Perfect match to our old S.O. uniforms.

Sounds like the begining of a bar joke.



"So..... there was this cop, goat, chicken and a thief....................

That was a deputy backing me up. You can't see it but he was taking pictures at the same time I was.

Funny... thing is, I had something off the wall happen to me today, too.

Any time a goat gets involved you know it's gonna be weird.

My neighbor has 2 goats.... I'll take the "baaaa" over a barking dog any day. Most the time I start laughing when I hear them.

A while back, here in the Bay Area, there was a CHP a few cars ahead of me that stopped the entire 4 lane freeway, Hwy 101. Then he got out and started hearding a family of ducks from the center divider to the side, and off the road. It was hilarious to see him bent over, arms out, and running around hearding ducks. People in the cars around me were cracking up.

I was thinking how good it was for him to do that because it surely could have caused a wreck. All in a days work, I guess. Safety first.

When you get pulled over and then see chickens and goats ……..its just time to say “ yes officer I’ve been drinking to much please take me to jail”

If that happened in my neck of the woods you'd have a couple of squashed ducks with tread marks on their backs..

Did you lodge them for tampering with evidence and interfering with a crime scene?
