Oklahoma bloke cuffed for Chrimbo caprine coupling
Excess of Xmas Eve spirit suspected in alleged goat sex shocker
An Oklahoma City man was detained at gunpoint on Christmas Eve by a goat owner who claimed he'd discovered the alleged zoophile in flagrante delicto with one of his animals.
According to local KOKH Fox 25, 53-year-old Darryl Gene Scoggin was caught on surveillance camera in a barn in the west of the city at around 10.30PM, "obviously having sexual intercourse with the goat", as the proprietor alleged to cops.
The armed owner intervened, and when Scoggin attempted to escape, held the suspect at gunpoint until police arrived, cops said. It was the not the first such goat violation incident at the property, the vigilante goatherd reported.
Scoggin's jacket was recovered from the goat pound, with a bottle of vodka in the pocket, said police. He was cuffed and hauled off to Oklahoma County Jail on an animal cruelty rap.
The fate that awaits Scoggin when he's hauled before the beak is unknown, but it's unlikely he'll face the Sudanese tribal custom of the caprine shotgun wedding, a practice also favoured in parts of Mozambique. ®
