Another woman out walking her dog attacked by bobcat in Parkland
A Calgary woman was sent to hospital after being attacked by a bobcat on the morning of June 23 in Parkland. A second bobcat attack has occurred in the southeast Calgary community of Parkland. Fish and Wildlife said it's possible it was the same animal responsible for the first attack. This latest incident happened at roughly 4:40 p.m. on June 29. 'An individual reported that they were walking their dog off-leash when they first noticed a bobcat kitten,' Fish and Wildlife said in a statement. 'As they began to leash their pet and move out of the area, an altercation with an adult bobcat occurred, which resulted in some superficial scratches to the victim.' Fish and Wildlife noted the area where this occurred was not an off-leash area. The authority said it has been unable to find the bobcat and that it won't be easy to do so. 'Locating and trapping a free-roaming wild cat with kittens and access to an abundant food source can be extremely challenging,' the authority said. Fish and Wildlife said it will 'continue to monitor the situation in this area and remains ready to respond to any further incidents as they are reported.' Calgary police confirmed it also received word of the latest incident. Police said the woman's injuries 'were not life-threatening' and that 'she was treated at hospital.' This incident is similar to another that occurred in the neighbourhood of Parkland around 10 a.m. on June 23. On that day, a woman was attacked by a bobcat while she was walking her dog in front of her home. The woman was taken to hospital for minor cuts and scratches. Fish and Wildlife spent hours setting up traps but were unable to capture any bobcats—big or small. Area residents said the adult bobcat has been in the area for months and had a litter of four kittens living under a deck for the past five weeks. The two attacks occurred about two kilometres from each other. 'While officers are unable to confirm the same bobcat was involved in both incidents, the proximity suggests it is possible,' Fish and Wildlife said. With files by Jordan Kanygin

Driver charged with impaired driving in Fort McMurray hit-and-run
A Fort McMurray man has been charged with drunk driving and for not staying at the scene of a collision in a Saturday hit-and-run in the northern Alberta city. Wood Buffalo RCMP said in a Monday media release that a 60-year-old man faces charges including failure to stop after an accident and driving a vehicle while impaired. The charges come after police answered a 9-1-1- call of a collision between a white Pontiac Grand Prix and a Toyota Sienna on Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m. at a four-way stop in a downtown intersection at Manning Avenue and Centennial Drive. Police say witnesses to the collision said the driver of the Pontiac looked to be impaired, and gave officers a description of the driver and the car. Police found the man at his home shortly after and arrested him without incident, they said. The man provided breath samples that exceeded the legal blood-alcohol concentration limit of 80 mg three times, police said.
