GAHANNA, Ohio (AP) � Police were looking Tuesday for a lion that several residents reported was on the prowl. �I�m convinced it�s a 300-pound to 400-pound African lion,� deputy police chief Larry Rinehart said. �We�re scurrying. It�s a heck of a day.�
GAHANNA, Ohio -- Officials have called off a search for a wild animal in Gahanna, Ohio.
Authorities received reports that a 300- to 400-pound African lion had been spotted in the Gahanna area four times in less than 24 hours.
It is unclear why the search was called off. Gahanna police scheduled a news conference for 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Police in the Columbus suburb of Gahanna are still searching for a lion on the loose.
A police helicopter flushed out a coyote in the area but so far no lion has been spotted.
