Mansfield Police Lip Sync Challenge Is 'Greatest Show'
The department's video has backflips, parkour, the American flag, and the return of a goat that gave police trouble earlier this year.

MANSFIELD, MA — The Mansfield Police Department's entry into the Lip Sync Challenge has it all from a foot chase, back flips, and an encounter with the pesky goat that offices tried to capture earlier this summer.
The six-minute YouTube video sees parkour expert Daniel Kipp attempt to evade police after taking the American Flag from the North Common while officers and other lip sync their way through "The Greatest Show," from "The Greatest Showman."
Members of the Mansfield High School band and color guard, Mansfield High School cheerleaders, the fire department, and others around town make appearances.
