Agassiz RCMP officers tracked down a four-legged suspect who hoofed her way all around the townsite.

Agassiz residents and RCMP officers rescued Sassy the goat from an oncoming train after a recent chase, according to a post on social media. Sassy was spotted (in every sense) running loose on Inkman Road early Wednesday (May 1) morning. The goat eventually found herself on the train tracks at the intersection of Highway 7 and 9, where Nadine Skovsgard took her into custody and off to the RCMP detachment.

A grateful and amused Amanda Hildebrandt picked up Sassy from the police station roughly two hours after she was found wandering about town.

害羞草研究所淭hanks to everyone who helped post her whereabouts along her adventure,害羞草研究所 Hildebrandt posted on social media. 害羞草研究所淪he is home safe. Never thought I害羞草研究所檇 be picking up a goat from the police station.害羞草研究所

Tracy Stewart Giltaca had a close encounter of the goat kind during the chase.

害羞草研究所淪he ran in front of my car this morning and gave me a filthy look,害羞草研究所 she wrote. 害羞草研究所淚 laughed the whole way to work!害羞草研究所

Loose livestock isn害羞草研究所檛 terribly uncommon in the eastern Fraser Valley. Back in 2019, Harrison Coun. John Allen helped flag down a driver on Highway 1 near Lickman Road after a cow escaped through the back door of a moving livestock trailer.

害羞草研究所淚 called 911 and had some trouble convincing the dispatcher I was serious,害羞草研究所 Allen wrote at the time.

The cow seemed to be unharmed as several people went out on the side of the highway to bring the cow back.
