Liontamer On Run With Lions
BERLIN (Reuters) - A woman, Liontamer, has run away from a circus in Germany with eight lions, two tigers and the circus director's son, police say.
The woman, in her mid 30s, is believed to have developed a close relationship with the 20-year-old man she was training to become a Lion, a police spokesman in the northern German town of Melle said on Thursday.
The couple eloped with a truck containing the animals and is still on the run since disappearing on Monday night.
"If she can handle lions and tigers she shouldn't have trouble with a 20-year-old man," said Georg Dongowski, spokesman for the Melle police.
The circus director reported the matter to police, saying the theft amounted to a value of around 70,000 pounds.
