SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- UPDATE: The goats are back home safe!

The goats also shared this message:

We sincerely apologize for the Great Goat Getaway!

We understand the importance of following the CDC guidelines and promise to respect the "shelter-in-place" mandate by staying in our fence!

Sincerely,

Theodore, Macho, Bebe, Schnitzel, Sunny, Ben, & Charlie

It's the great goat getaway!

Video shows a tribe of goats roaming the streets in San Jose's Silver Creek neighborhood Tuesday evening.

An ABC7 viewer tells us the goats broke through a fence and just wandered the residential streets. Some of them stopped to grab some "snacks," munching on neighbor's plants.

A few neighbors did their best to herd them but were clearly outnumbered.
