Police in Cherry Hill, N.J., were forced to tape off a section of a sidewalk outside of a toy store after residents reported being attacked by a goose.
Local 6 News showed video of the goose chasing a shopper outside of the Cherry Hill Toys R Us store. The goose also attacked a reporter.
Since the goose has begun sitting on the toy store's roof, employees have been escorting customers to their cars.
"Every time someone walks past, if you are on a bike or car it won't come at you," a shopper said. "But as soon as you walk past, it will come down right after you."
The aggressive goose has also become a tourist attraction for some wanting to see the attacks, the report said.
"This is hilarious," a resident said. "I actually thought it was a hawk or a falcon actually when I came in originally. I did not know that was a goose."
