Multiple CCTV and phone camera clips of a leopard wandering the lanes and terrorising citizens were shared on Twitter.

As per media reports, one person who lives on a school campus in Kalyanpur, was the first victim of the leopard attack, receiving 32 stitches and suffering serious injuries. The stray animal ended up injuring 7 people, as per local news reports. Authorities became engaged after word of a leopard sighting in the area spread, and they began searching. Despite conducting a thorough search, forest officials were initially unable to capture the wildcat.
Police and forest department officials arrived in the area and attempted to calm the residents and keep them away from the leopard's suspected hiding place. The leopard was confined in a net set in a ditch about midnight, but it got away and clawed some people who had come to see the animal.

The leopard was finally caught and confined inside a steel cage. As per forest officials, it will later be released in the wild.
Leopard encounters have been more common in recent years as urban areas continue to spread, intruding more and more on the dense forests, which have been the leopard's natural habitat. According to wildlife conservationists and national park authorities, this is the key cause for the frequent leopard sightings.
