Drivers beware: A small herd of GOATS is causing havoc in St Luke’s right now

‘Be careful if you’re driving,
That’s the warning for motorists in the St Luke’s area of Cork City this morning, after a small herd of loose goats apparently found their way into traffic.
After numerous reports of goats devouring the gardens of homeowners and marauding through housing estates and streets in Cork’s Northside this week, the animals are now wreaking havoc on the roads.
At least five or six of the animals can be seen at the roadside in this video shared with the Neil Prendeville Show on RedFM:

“Erm does anyone own a small herd of goats in Cork city?” Twitter user @Nic-Name asked.
Erm does anyone own a small herd of goats in Cork city? They’re loose in St Lukes at the moment. Cute but vulnerable so be careful if driving. #onlyinIreland
