If anyone sees the mountain lion, please bring pets inside, stay indoors and call 911, police said. 

On Tuesday, just down the street, a blaze in a region bounded by Woodside, Redwood City and Edgewood Park & Natural Preserve caused local evacuation orders and left thousands of Peninsula residents without power. As of Wednesday afternoon, it had been reduced to 20 acres and is 42% contained, according to Cal Fire officials.
