Residents in a Dallas suburb were greeted by surprise guests in their neighborhood Tuesday morning: a herd of goats.

According to a post on social media by the Arlington Police Department, at around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, officers were notified that a herd of goats was wandering through a neighborhood.

Authorities said the herd escaped their enclosure in a local park and decided to go for a morning stroll.

"This is a mess," an officer is heard saying on body camera video released by the department.
