Sept. 30 (UPI) -- A Rhode Island police department said an elusive goat spotted multiple times remains on the loose in the town -- but officers did end up capturing a donkey.

The Glocester Police Department said on social media that the goat has been on the loose in the area since September, and the animal even broke into a home last week.

"Officers arrived and caught him red-hooved inside the home, but the suspect was faster than us and made his getaway out the back door and back into the woods," the post said.
