The big cat seen roaming around Bexley has been spotted again this time near Plumstead Common.

The large black cat, thought to be a panther, was seen last Thursday near to Upton Road, between Plumstead Common and Shrewsbury Park.

This latest sighting comes just weeks after two glimpses of the animal in Hillview Cemetery, Welling.

Father-of-three Dave Loson, 33, saw the cat from a window in the flats on Upton Road.

The mini-cab controller, from John Wilson Street, Woolwich, said: "It was standing 75-100 yards away on a dirt track for about five minutes so I got a really good look at it."
