Favre Goat Found in Woman's Trunk at Repair Shop (www.myfox9.com)
MYFOX9, Twin Cities -
Brett Favre may have gotten your goat by joining the Minnesota Vikings, but one woman took the phrase quite literally. She may face animal cruelty charges after a purple and gold-painted goat with a number four shaved in its side was found in the trunk of her car at a Winona Tires Plus.
On her way to St. Paul, the woman brought her Chevy Malibu to the shop to have a belt replaced. Tires Plus employee James Prusci was completing paperwork when she told him she had a goat in the trunk. She told him she planned to butcher it.
Prusci called animal control, which took the goat to a veterinary hospital. The goat was renamed Brett and placed in foster care.
The city attorney is reviewing the case for possible citations, said Animal control officer Wendy Peterson Wednesday.
