Police in Murang’a were holding a man accused of stealing a goat after members of the public caught him and forced him to carry the animal away from the scene.

The incident, captured in a short video, shows the suspect being escorted after the alleged theft. The clip does not provide further details on the owner of the goat, the circumstances of the arrest, or whether formal charges had already been filed.

The source material identifies the location as Murang’a and frames the man as a suspected goat thief. It also shows the public taking control before police custody, a detail that made the episode stand out as an example of instant punishment by residents.

A link to the original video was included in the source archive: source.
