Wales:
“A man who drank six litres of cider at a party went on to steal a goat and take it on a joyride, a court heard. Drunken Carl Anthony Myles took a shine to 11-month-old Snowy as he walked home from a party last month. Neath magistrates’ court heard that, after leading the goat from a local smallholding, Myles put it in the back of a Volvo car belonging to a farmer Huw Leyshon who lived nearby. He was apprehended by Mr Leyshon after crashing his car into a tractor. Snowy died two days later.”
