Citizens and police officers chased the animal on foot and on motorbikes in the north-side neighborhood, before the medium-sized wolf finally was cornered "with the help of neighbors," the city police department said late Monday.

Once cornered, police animal-control officers snared the wolf with a rope and forced the German-shepherd-sized animal into a cage for transport.
It was unclear where the wolf came from. It appeared trotting down sidewalks in a densely built-up neighborhood near a city zoo. But the city’s Environment Department said all of the zoo's wolves were accounted for.
