Wolf bites woman in shock German attack in Hamburg shopping street [View all]
The highly unusual attack took place in the bustling Grosse Bergstrasse in Hamburg Altona, near an inner-city Ikea store on Monday evening.
The woman appears to have tried to lead the disoriented animal away from the shopping street. The wolf then bit the woman's face, according to local reports and then ran off.
The woman was taken to hospital but has since been discharged.
...
The wolf was later spotted late on Monday night in the Binnenalster lake in Hamburg. Police managed to pull it out of the water with a rope.

Not where you'd think to find a wolf (It's not like Hamburg is in a wild or mountainous area either (the 2 neighbouring states are about the density of Delaware)). And a shame she was trying to help.
