Black leopard reportedly sighted again in Ohio

DAYTON, Ohio - A black leopard reportedly sighted several times in southwest Ohio apparently has been seen again in the Dayton area.

Maj. Dave Hale of the Montgomery County Sheriff's says a person reported seeing the animal Tuesday near a wooded area along the Stillwater River in Harrison Township. Hale says the leopard has been spotted at least five or six times in the past 14 or 15 months.

The Dayton Daily News reports reports that the leopard appears to be staying close to the wooded area near the river.

Hale says the sheriff's office has not had any reports of the leopard approaching a human. He says its unlikely authorities could trap the animal.
