ONLY IN THE SOUTH: ( Winston Salem Journal Reports)

A Rowan County restaurant linked to an E. coli outbreak that killed an 86-year-old woman last week was closed after health officials learned that employees slaughtered a goat there.
Health officials cannot prove that the goat slaughter caused the E. coli outbreak, the Rowan County health director, Leonard Wood, said Monday.
Wood said that a former employee of Captain’s Galley Seafood Restaurant in China Grove disclosed the goat slaughter.
The goat was killed between May 11 and May 20, Wood said. Restaurant customers got sick between May 26 and June 3.

As if North Carolina has not had some bad press lately with the whole Nifong debacle and now restaurants are slaughtering Goats for food. I realize animals die for food but usually not at the restaurant doors.
