A tipster just let us know that Discovery Park has been closed, due the recent cougar sightings. Probably worth grilling indoors, if you live the neighborhood. UPDATE: Just spoke with Deputy Superintendent Christopher Williams from the Parks Department, and the park closing is on the advice of Fish & Wildife, who are trying to trap the cougar. "We've never closed a park because of a large cat," said Williams, calling the situation "unprecedented." The park will be closed over Labor Day weekend, through Monday, so re-plan that family picnic STAT!
