    2 pajama-clad girls take stolen goat for walk

    MANKATO, Minn. (AP) — Everything went according to plan for two pajama-clad stepsisters who took a goat they'd freed from a Minnesota zoo for a late-night walk.

    Until they told the Mankato police officer who stopped them about 11:30 p.m. Saturday that the animal lived in their bedroom closet.

    The stepsisters, ages 6 and 7, said they regularly took the goat out for late-night walks because Dad didn't know their mother had bought it two weeks earlier.

    The unconvinced officer walked the girls home, where their parents explained they'd attended a birthday party at the Sibley Park Zoo earlier that day. That's when they hatched a plan to take one of the goats home.

    The Free Press (http://bit.ly/qB0qd4) says police don't know how the girls freed the goat, which was returned to the zoo.

      So the girls sneak out of the house and steal the goat from the zoo and were stopped on the way home? It's a cute little story but I'd appreciate more details so I don't have to make assumptions.

      What kind of parents let their 6 and 7 year old daughters walk around the neighborhood at 11:30 at night?

      I wanna know how they got to the zoo by themselves, how far it was, and how long before the parents noticed they were gone.
