A GOAT seen wandering the streets of Murray Bridge on Saturday had one hell of a headache by the time police managed to round it up. The goat rumoured to be called "Nelson" was caught after going on a rampage and destroying a business' window along Maurice Street, about 5.30pm. DJ Auto co-owner Sherley Foster said she was heading to Adelaide for dinner with friends when she got a call from security to say the alarm of their business had been set off. When she arrived Ms Foster found a man and his son trying to round up the goat who had taken offence at its own reflection in the mirrored window of the shop and had set out to pick a fight with itself. "It wasn't huge and didn't have horns," she said. "They got it then it got loose when the collar broke and it went ballistic. "It was mayhem but very funny." Ms Foster said she was not the only one who thought the head-butting incident was funny. "There was one police car already there and then another two rolled up and the police couldn't stop laughing." Eventually the police caught the goat and peace was restored to the area.
