Police in southern city of Chennai found scapegoats after their new patrol car is damaged.
Aljazeera.com has reported that
Three goats were caught and detained by police in the southern Indian
city of Chennai after they allegedly vandalised a new police patrol
vehicle, the Times of India has reported.
The trio were held as
“scapegoats” for the crime which reportedly involved a dozen of their
tribe trampling over the car – the latest example of anti-social
behaviour in the Kilpauk district of the city.
Police said the goats had a
record of damaging vehicles of residents, but had “crossed the line”
with an attack on a new patrol vehicle, a maroon Innova. “We got the
vehicle two days ago,” said an officer on duty.
