Man takes goat for walk in downtown Detroit

Oct. 11 (UPI) -- An astonished onlooker snapped a photo of an unusual spectacle in downtown Detroit -- a man walking a goat on a leash.

Seth Myers posted a photo to Twitter on Monday night showing a man walking with a woman and a goat on a leash in the city's downtown.

"Just spotted this couple walking a goat through downtown #Detroit. Here they are heading up Brush, into Greektown," Myers wrote.

Online commenters suggested the man was Erick Brown, whose YouTube channel revealed he drives around the country in a bus with his pet goat.

Brown said in a YouTube video he is in the Detroit area seeking land to start a commune.

The goat is not the first unusual animal to make waves in Detroit: Earlier this year, a man was caught on video taking a leashed kangaroo for a walk in the city.
