Arcane INTERVENTION CAUSES GOAT TO GET STUCK

A strange creature, possibly a stolen mountain goat named Chug, has been stuck under a Kansas City bridge since Monday's eclipse. The KC Pet Project was tasked with rescuing the creature, but the ordeal turned into a comedy of errors when a firefighter's rope got tangled around the goat's neck. Firefighters managed to untangle the rope, but not before the goat fell 15 feet to the ground. Miraculously, the goat survived and may be reunited with its rightful owners. According to eyewitnesses, a stray familiar was seen hovering above the bridge before the incident occurred. The Department of Wildlife Transmutation is investigating the incident. The pet project staff said they were baffled by the situation, but theories abound about how Chug ended up underneath the bridge so high off the ground. Some point to a possible misfiling in an ancient registry of magical creatures while others say perhaps there was interference from rogue practitioners who often seek to manipulate wildlife for their own gain. As news spread rapidly across social media platforms and local news outlets, thousands tuned in hoping for updates on Chug's condition. Chug's original owners claim they reported him missing two months prior to this unusual discovery.
