This Sunday morning, rail traffic had to be interrupted in Huy following the presence of a goat near the railway tracks! Around 8:45 a.m., the Huy area police were alerted to the presence of a goat that was not far from the railway tracks around rue des Vignes. Given the risk of an incident, the authorities decided to interrupt the movement of trains during the emergency response. The police managed to take charge of the animal which had escaped from its enclosure located not far from Huy station between rue Sainte-Anne and rue Thier des Malades.
Responsible owners
The goat got into the police van to be picked up. He did not seem at all disconcerted by this situation, which was comical to say the least, and behaved well in the vehicle used to welcoming another type of public. Train traffic was stopped for less than an hour. The animal was then released by the police before returning to its enclosure. If the situation may seem amusing, the Huy police would like to remind you that animal owners are responsible for any damage that may be caused during their wanderings. “This time everything ended well, rejoices Commissioner David Tancredi of the Huy police. But this kind of event can cause sometimes serious incidents. The owner is then required to pay for the damage. It is necessary to ensure that the places in which the animals are found are properly secured.
And two ponies on a spree on Saturday
This weekend in Liège-Bastogne-Liège was definitely that of the “breakaways” in Huy since during the night from Saturday to Sunday, two ponies had the idea of deserting their enclosure located rue Sainte-Anne. It was around 1 a.m. when the Huoise police were notified that they were wandering on the road. The police quickly intervened on the spot to avoid any incident. Initially, the owner of the equines might not be identified. The police therefore took charge of the animals and transferred them to the Parc du Mont-Mosan. A little later, the owner of the ponies came forward to collect them. If this time once more, everything ended well, the commissioner would like to remind you that this type of intervention wastes the time of the rescue teams who might be available for other tasks.
