Goat head-butts reporter off her feet

Posted: Updated:

A valuable lesson was learned by ABC 7's Linda Carson Tuesday: never turn your back on a goat.

She was at the Manatee County Fair recording a track for a story about kids that raise goats, when one goat decided that it was not pleased to have her in the pen - charging her and knocking her to the floor. It even came back for a second charge.

Carson took the whole thing in stride and laughed it off. She says it didn't even hurt.
