A funny piece of news

Mine's a laaaaaaaaatte: wayward goat wanders into Starbucks

Staff at a Starbucks in northern California got a surprise on Sunday when an unusual customer wandered in to the cafe first thing in the morning.
Rohnert Park police sergeant Rick Bates said dispatchers received several calls about a goat named Millie wandering around a strip mall on the city’s eastern edge.
Bates said the herbivore may have entered Starbucks in search of a caffeine hit.
He said employees, who were opening the cafe at the time, tried to give Millie a banana, but it kept walking into the coffee shop and started chewing on a box.
Bates took the goat into custody and brought it to the animal shelter — but not before snapping photos of it sniffing around the Starbucks and posting them on the police department’s Facebook page.
He said word spread to Millie’s owner, and the animal made it home.
Millie didn’t travel far; she lives around the corner from the mall.
Rohnert Park is about 80km (50m) north of San Francisco.
