LOS ANGELES - A tiger that appeared in a Las Vegas magic act made an unscheduled disappearance and roamed the city’s streets before being recaptured by its owners, the Las Vegas Review Journal reported Friday.
The paper said that the feline escaped from the Fernando brothers Magic Act and ran loose through a northwest Las Vegas neighbourhood.
No one was injured and no charges will be filed. But animal control officers have contacted the owners to advise them on a proper holding pen for the tiger, the report said.
