PC Claire Burrows, the investigating officer, said: “The owner is obviously very upset by the loss of the goat. She is particularly concerned as there is a possibility that the goat was stolen for breeding but could potentially die if bred from as she has a health condition.
“We would like to appeal to anyone you may remember seeing someone in these areas between these times acting suspiciously. Did you see someone putting the goat into a vehicle?
“We would also like anyone who has been approached by a person trying to sell a goat to call us and aid us in our investigation.”
Anyone with any information is asked to contact PC Burrows on 101.

“With all the stuff that is going on in this City - a pet goat get's stolen story.
On a par with a front page headline of 10,000 die in earthquake - nobody from Leicester involved
C'mon LM there is a lot to get involved in in this City & County - be brave and get after the real stories! (I hope that the goat is found BTW)”

“@Nick 7118. I have an excellent sense of humour. Your photo has given me the best laugh in ages. Were you an understudy in Night of the Living Dead?”

“@RedNed. I do appreciate animal rustling has always taken place but it it currently on the rise.
The rest of you may continue with your cheap unfunny shots. Pathetic isn't the word.”

“I sincerely hope for Mona's sake she has been stolen for breeding. The alternative does not bear thinking about. We are living in horrid times at present.”
