POLICE ARREST GOAT FOR ARMED ROBBERY!
http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Wor..._Armed_Robbery
Nigerian police are holding a goat on suspicion of attempted armed robbery - amid claims it used black magic to morf from a human to escape justice.
Nigerian Police are holding the goat while they complete inquiries
Vigilantes took the animal to police, claiming it had been a person trying to steal a Mazda 323.
"The group of vigilante men came to report that while they were on patrol they saw some hoodlums attempting to rob a car," Kwara state police spokesman Tunde Mohammed said.
"They pursued them. However one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat.
"We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody."
He went on: "We cannot base our information on something mystical. It is something that has to be proved scientifically, that a human being turned into a goat."
Belief in witchcraft is widespread in parts of Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation.
People have been flocking to the police station to see the goat, photographed in one national newspaper on its knees next to a pile of straw.

Sounds like a cheap excuse for a BBQ for justice ...
Remember, just because Davros is dead doesn't mean the Dalek menace has been contained ......

Surely that should be Morph not Morf.
Anyway, that's quite ridiculous. All quite ridiculous. It must be a slow news day today.

I've just got my handcuffs and my truncheon and that's enough.

Well at least the Nigerian police acted! If it was Merseyside police they'd just take details and go "Well there's nothing we can do I'm afraid..."

I think what's happening here is that they're blaming the goat for the crime, even though it didn't actually do anything.
Yes, they're making it into.... a patsy!Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!
