Abington Lion Wins Legal Skirmish Over Eviction
Leo the lion, owned by Howard Sautter, won a partial legal victory when Justice Kohut dismissed township charges for keeping a wild animal. The ruling found the township failed to prove Leo was a wild animal, though neighbors push to ban the pet in the backyard persists. Sautter vowed to appeal if needed, arguing Leo is gentle, loved, and cleaner than many pets, while the town cites odor and safety concerns.
