According to some posts on social media it’s either a black jaguar or panther, but the police officers are yet to confirm the animal's species. 

The police took to twitter to confirm that trained professionals are currently conducting extensive searches to locate and capture the animal.

Meanwhile, authorities have advised members of the Springs community to exercise caution until further updates are provided.
