Gruff justice as goat breaks into family home and attacks man still in his pyjamas after he went downstairs to investigate the commotion

This is the hilarious moment a man struggles with a goat after it broke into his house and started attacking him while he was in his pajamas.

Martin Arbuckle, from Cullybackey, Northern Ireland, was in bed when he heard his partner, Lauren Coleman, screaming that there was an intruder in their home.

Lauren had woken up earlier to do some cleaning and had left the front door open while mopping so their dog could come and go.

But to their surprise, a huge goat managed to enter their house.

While filming the incident, which has since gone viral on TikTok with more than 644,000 views, Lauren captured the hilarious moment her partner is confronted by the animal.

Footage shows Martin coming downstairs in his Grinch pajamas before physically wrestling the goat to prevent it from going upstairs.

The animal then begins to make growling noises as it becomes more and more powerful and lunges at him.

“It’s going to bite me!” Martin then screams.

Lauren laughs behind the camera and then jokes, “You’ll end up confused.”

After a confrontation between Martin and the goat, he then manages to grab the animal by the horns and forcefully push it out the door.

The couple believes the goat came in from nearby farmland.

Lauren said: ‘The goat came from one of the fields near our house and a local farmer came and collected it afterwards.

“It wasn’t his, he just helped us get it out of the estate.”

‘I think Martin dealt with it quite well, but he was in shock afterwards. The goat hurt his back, but he wasn’t angry afterwards, just tired!

“I’m forever grateful he pulled it out; I couldn’t possibly go near it, it smelled so bad. We’ve never heard of anything like this happening.”

TikTok users have since found the video hysterical and the comments have been pouring in.

One person said: ‘The pajamas make this a thousand times funnier.’
