Police: 'Beware of goose!' after campus parking lot attack

YPSILANTI, Mich. (AP) — Police at Eastern Michigan University have issued a warning: "Beware of goose!"
The department says potentially aggressive geese have been spotted on campus and issued the warning when posting a video on Instagram showing one goose attacking and chasing a person in a school parking lot.
Police say the attack happened on the north end of the school s campus in Ypsilanti. Two geese are nesting in the area, and the birds are protective.
University spokesman Geoff Larcom says it s not unusual for geese to nest on campus this time of year. He says several students have reported goose attacks, but no injuries have been reported.
Larcom tells MLive.com: "A few students have tried to take selfies of the geese when they are hissing, but we advise against that."
