CALIFORNIA BRIEFING / MIRA LOMA
A lost goat wandering through a busy intersection was corralled inside a Carl’s Jr. Wednesday morning where it charged its reflection in the glass doors a few times before being taken away by Riverside County animal control.
The incident began in Mira Loma when a woman sitting in the restaurant’s drive-through lane spotted the goat traipsing along busy Limonite Avenue.
The unidentified woman got out and led the animal inside the restaurant, said John Welsh, spokesman for the county Department of Animal Services. Once inside, a Riverside County sheriff’s deputy helped her control the goat until animal services officers removed it.
Welsh said the goat was taken to the Banning Animal Shelter and treated for minor scrapes and injuries. Animal control will try to find the goat’s owner and, if unsuccessful, will have it adopted or transferred to a rescue group.
