Goat rescued from fifth floor window ledge

Feb. 21 (UPI) -- Firefighters in Madrid came to the rescue of a goat that somehow ended up stranded on a ledge on the fifth floor of an apartment building.

Firefighters responded to the building and discovered the goat was on the ledge outside of a closed window leading to a vacant apartment.

The goat's origins, and how it came to be stranded on the ledge, were a mystery.

Firefighters used treats including carrots and lettuce to lure the goat to a nearby balcony, where they were able to get control of the animal.

The goat was turned over to the Madrid Emergency Veterinary Service for care while authorities try to locate the animal's owner.
