Mountain lion seen roaming San Francisco neighbourhood

A mountain lion was spotted roaming a San Francisco neighbourhood on Friday (Sep 18), prompting police and animal control crews to cordon off the area and residents asked to stay indoors. Footage showed an animal control officer searching the neighbourhood on foot before the mountain lion darted out from bushes and ran along a sidewalk, rounding a corner before it disappeared again. The mountain lion was tranquilised and captured eventually after a stand-off which lasted a few hours, and the sedated animal was transported out of the city and released into the wild, according to city officials. #usanews #sanfrancisco Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
