In 
					this photo taken Sunday, an Indian police 
					officer shoots a leopard as it attacks a bystander in Karad, 
					Maharashtra, India. Local media reported that when police 
					shot the rampaging animal, it had already injured a number of people. It is still not clear where the leopard came
