Would you be scared if you were walking to your car in your neighborhood and encountered a black goat roaming around?

Black Goat named 'Smoke'

On the West side of Detroit, resident Dae'lan Scott was startled when he saw a black goat roaming around, and he was scared, so he jumped on top of his car.

Innocent Farm Animals or Harbingers of Evil?

Many people that grew up in the city may have little to no experience being around goats. After all, we see them on TV, and can sometimes be associated with the occult, devil worship, evil, and many other satanic things in pop culture.

To those that have farms, they know that goats are curious and mostly harmless creatures that can sometimes get into mischief.

Detroit Resident Startled by Black Goat in Neighborhood

Dae'lan Scott learned that 'Smoke' the black goat, escaped from his property and was just taking a tour of the Detroit neighborhood.

Dae'lan told WXYZ News:

"So I go outside. I'm like, OK, OK, I start 'Baaa, Baaa'" and Smoke "came out of nowhere."

The owner of Smoke the black goat is Robert Pizzimenti, and he was cited for "possessing a wild animal without permit."

Pizzimenti regretfully said:

"I don't want him to walk around. He actually hopped the fence. That wasn't the idea. I do need to keep him contained."

WXYZ  reported that court records reveal that the city has "had a history of problems with his animals."

Pizzimenti also said:

"If Detroiters were allowed to farm and garden the way many of us want to, we could have the most unique city on the planet."

Resident Dae'lan Scott now knows what to do if he comes across Smoke. He will try to get Smoke the black goat back home to Mr. Pizzimenti.
