LYNNWOOD, Wash. — A Lynnwood community can rejoice after a thief returned a large goat statue that they stole from a fence on Beverly Park Road. The Beverly goat has been in place since this summer to delight passersby.
“It absolutely gave me an ounce of joy every day on my way to work,” according to, Chelsea Meggitt, an organizer for a GoFundMe campaign to bring the goat back. “That’s insanely important in today's world because we are so divided. It’s such a polarized time in this country.”
$600 has been raised to help bring the goat home.
Meggitt told KING 5 News that she didn't "think it would have been returned if it wasn't for the news story about it, so thank you so much for helping us get the goat back."
The goat will be returned to its original location on Tuesday.
It's unknown if the Beverly Park goat thief will face charges.
