ALISO CREEK  (CBSLA.com) — A brazen bobcat strolled along the 73 Freeway Saturday in Orange County.

The big cat appeared on the Aliso Creek on-ram of the Northbound 73.

Many drivers called 911.

The CHP arrived 15 minutes after the initial call and the bobcat was still there, on the prowl.

One driver told police he’d seen bobcats in the area before — but much smaller ones and never ones this bold.

Animal Control officers decided to leave the big cat alone deciding it was not an imminent danger to the public.
