Police Responding to Possible Mountain Lion Sighting near 14th and Montana
Santa Monica Police Department personnel are responding to a report of a possible mountain lion sighting in a residential area.

Community members in the area are encouraged to remain indoors, keep pets inside, and avoid approaching or attempting to photograph the animal if it is seen. Anyone who sees the animal should call 9-1-1 immediately and provide their location from a safe place.
