Sheltie Leela escaped fright during a walk near the arena last Wednesday. Since then she has been seen again and again. All attempts to capture or lure them have failed so far. After remaining calm for a while, there was a sighting on October 7th. First, it was initially unclear whether this was really Leela. Shortly thereafter, there was the confirmation, whereupon the search area could be clearly limited.

Over a group set up on Facebook, various search teams were formed and observation posts were set up and organized. Due to the escape mode, the experts are extremely cautious. The search parties are to renounce calls and attempts to catch Leela. It is still hoped that she will come on her own.
