FALLBROOK, Calif., July 24 (UPI) -- A man who allegedly attempted to steal two goats from a California high school was arrested after being implicated by DNA evidence, authorities said.
Two Tennessee fainting goats, named for a condition that causes them to fall down when startled, were found with duct tape on their legs and snouts in the barn of Fallbrook High School in June 2011, Sgt. Jose Montion of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department said. An intruder apparently attempting to steal the goats, which belonged to a student, ran away when interrupted by a security guard, he said.
