Loose Moose Reportedly Spotted in Lexington

Lexington, MA - A loose moose last seen running through Belmont and Watertown reportedly made its way to Lexington Friday.

According to a video posted to the Watertown Police Department's Facebook page, it was first seen early Wednesday morning trotting down Waverley Avenue in Watertown. Oddly, it adhered to human conventions and kept its jog to the sidewalk, as it gave police there the slip.

It next ran to Belmont, where it was spotted on Bartlett Avenue. This time it ventured out into the street, before safely making it to the woods near Concord Avenue.

On Thursday, Mass. State Police helped lend a helicopter to search for the moose by air. It proved elusive nonetheless.

Friday, it reappeared. 

There was a sighting in Lexington on Robin Hill Road around 1 p.m., officials told WBZ-TV Friday. The search has since moved back to Belmont.
