The goat appears to be armed only with its horns as it peers into homes.
Police are advising people not to take the law into their own hands by trying to apprehend him. They say it does not belong to the local Creekside Farms, but they know who the owner is.
The goat has been seen wandering around the Township, showing up at doors and looking into homes.
Residents responding to the police notice about the peeping goat are bemused, with comments like "Officially on the lamb, huh? If the farm is not the owner, can't say I'd turn this kid in."
And, "A Chatham goat? Cheez...I hope a cop on the bleat locates him."
Another resident posted, "This is a baaaaaaaaad situation."
One resident was curious about the goat's name. "His name has got to be (e) Scape Goat."
Another local was concerned about the goat's legal rights.
"Didn't you mean the 'alleged' peeping goat?"
