A Lake Elmo couple said they spotted a cougar just outside their home on Saturday. Cathy Arnfeldt said she and her husband spotted the cougar along the 12000 block of 12th Street North in Lake Elmo. She said the cougar was between 150 and 175 pounds. The cougar quickly left the area and was not seen again. The Washington County Sheriff's Department said they didn't get any physical evidence of a cougar at the scene but are relying on the citizen report that it most likely happened. A Washington County Sheriff sergeant said they've had other recent sightings of a cougar around the area. The Stillwater Gazette reports that a few people saw a cougar around Lily Lake on Friday, which is about six to 10 miles south of where Arnfeldt said she saw the cougar on Saturday.
