Take the time to read this !👍👍🙂😡

Overnight, officers found a friendly goat walking loose near the Wacky Warriors Paintball facility off Highway 70. The goat happily approached officers and even let them load it into the vehicle with ease. We are trying to locate the owner, if this is your goat or you know who it might belong to, please contact the Wentzville Police Department at (636) 327-5105.
Thank you.

Please take a photo of him in a holding cell

lol wow. I bet WPD didn’t plan for that when reporting for duty. He is a cutie though. Awesome.

If y’all are willing to adopt a goat please go to your local animal shelter and look at adopting a dog or cat. No time to spare and diamonds in the ruff rescue are great! Just see a lot of comments about wanting the goat… dogs are better😉

Missed opportunity for a “we got your goat” Alert

Was he a baaaad boy?

Where does this goat go if the owner isn’t found? I’m willing to adopt if somone will point me in the right direction

I’ll take him and give him a great home if the owner isn’t located

Something must be going on because we had a goat on our road to that looks just like him. We had to rehome him because we couldn’t find his owner

Thank you for helping this cutie. If no one claims him, I’m willing to adopt.

Brandy Brant our baby got out! He’s mine where do I pick up 😂

I feel as though you guys now have a precinct mascot. We shall name him Shredder and he will eat all files not needed

That’s friendly lawnmower. 🤣

Hope the owners come and get their goat I’m sure he wants to go home.

April Ann so a horse, tortoise, and now goat?! And all within a month! 😂

Ohh how cute! Great job Officers! You're the Best around!

I could possible take if no owner found. I have a few others but gotta be husband approved 😂

I’m not sure why, but Benny Hill music was playing in my head while I was reading this post thinking about a WPD officer loading a goat into the cruiser.

Please drop him/her off at the The Goat House Halloween! Pub. Today is Kelly's 5th Anniversary there. The goat will be here gift. Please and thank you officers for finding her present 🎁

I'll adopt him or her

Angela Wedel Huffstutter I'm sure your goats wouldn't wander off this far, but just in case!

He was found off hepperman the other day by someone. Im sure it’s the same one.

Check the big blue house on hwy 79 theirs are out all the time.

I also saw 1 that looks very similar to both of these on Hwy 47 in Winfield the other morning. It didn't belong in the yard it was in. He looked lost!

I love this police dept !!💕

I bet his name is Tom Brady!

Earlier today, officers responded to a disturbance with a knife involving two brothers and their mother at the Crossroads Heritage Motel, located at 404 Luetkenhaus Blvd. Following an argument, one brother barricaded himself in a room with their mother. Officers requested assistance from the St. Charles County Regional SWAT Team and Police Negotiators worked to communicate with the suspect. A short time later the suspect agreed to exit the room, was taken into custody and charges are pending with the St. Charles County Prosecuting Attorneys Office. This was an isolated incident involving individuals known to each other and we are thankful that no one was injured. Officers on scene offered resources to both victims. We want to extend our appreciation to our officers on scene, the St. Charles County Regional SWAT Team, and all first responders involved.
