This is confirmed by security footage obtained from The Rest Estate control room. The MTPA has been on the scene since 02:00 with a thermal imaging drone trying to locate the lion, so far without success. The authority will continue to monitor the area until the lion is located.
The public is advised to remain calm, be vigilant and alert the authorities if they see the lion. The public may contact Louw Steyn on 083 6266 792 when they spot the lion.
