HOLLISTER -- The Hollister Police Department is calling out the Oakland Zoo and defending how officers responded to a wayward mountain lion.
Early Friday morning, Hollister police responded to a neighborhood on the 1400 block of Diablo Drive where a mountain lion was hiding in the bushes near two schools. Fish and Wildlife officers tried to hit the lion with tranquilizer darts twice but missed. When the big cat suddenly charged out of a bush toward officers, two of them opened fire with rifles, hitting the mountain lion at least once.
