Now, THIS is a Florida story.

Neighbors upset man shot his pet goats, let them rot in yard

Here's one way to get your neighbors' goat.

Shoot your goats.

Matthew Walsh, 49, accused of shooting goats he had raised on his Odessa property, allegedly said he killed his pets so they could be eaten, reports WTSP CBS News-10 in Tampa.

But hours later, neighbors reportedly found the dead goats, including several baby goats, rotting on the property and say Walsh shot the goats because they had escaped from a fence around his property, according to the report.
