A donkey led a midnight-hour procession of wayward farm animals through a West Covina neighborhood Thursday morning before police helped corral the creatures.

Officers were called about 12:30 a.m. to the area of Francisquito and Valinda avenues after being “advised of a herd of animals led by a donkey walking the streets,” according to West Covina police.

“The animals were located and safely corralled,” police said.

The menagerie, which included goats and sheep, escaped from a home in Valinda.

Once located, the owner and the animals hoofed it back home.
