周日早上，一只狼从位于东京西部的多摩动物园逃出其围栏，导致该设施关闭。动物在开园后不久被发现，并于下午2时20分左右在园内被重新捕获。躲在安全区域的游客中没有报告受伤者。
位于东京西部日野市的的多摩动物园于1958年开放，饲养着来自日本和国外约260种动物。周日早上9时30分开园后不久，一名饲养员在公共步道上发现了欧洲狼。逃脱于上午10时左右被报告，设施立即关闭。
园内已有的游客被敦促前往建筑物和其他安全地点避难，而当天的新入园被暂停。公园没有重新开放。狼于下午2时20分左右在园内灌木丛区域被找到并捕获。
据NHK报道，该园饲养两只狼——一只雄性和一只雌性——但没有说明是哪一只逃脱。来自东京东大和市的54岁男子在接受NHK采访时表示：“看到警车后，我问饲养员发生了什么事。我想知道它是怎么逃出来的。”
逃脱原因尚未公布，引起了对动物园安全措施的关注。
