Watch: Animals run loose from Cedar Point petting zoo
SANDUSKY, Ohio (WJW) – Three of Cedar Point's four-legged residents went for a run after getting out of the park's petting zoo on Friday.
According to a Cedar Point spokesperson, 'this morning, three alpacas from The Barnyard were observed walking along the Cedar Point & Lake Erie Railroad tracks.'
As seen above, a park guest captured video of the three animals running by the stopped train.

Park officials said their pens had been unlocked by a third-party operator during cleaning. The animals were quickly returned to The Barnyard, park officials said.
This isn't the first time animals were caught on camera running loose at Cedar Point. Last June, as FOX 8 previously reported, two camels were seen outside of the petting zoo, becoming spooked by nearby guests. The next week, videos showed goats outside of their habitat.

Bookclub opens new Black-, woman-, and queer-owned music venue in old Elbo Room building
New venue, same legacy as Bookclub opens new concert space in old Elbo Room building New venue, same legacy as Bookclub opens new concert space in old Elbo Room building New venue, same legacy as Bookclub opens new concert space in old Elbo Room building Every week, bands play in venues across Chicago, but a new concert space in Lakeview is different than most. Bookclub is proudly Black-, queer- and woman-owned. "It is not a traditional stage shape. We do not have a flat stage, but instead – especially being a queer-owned venue – we built a Lady Gaga catwalk," co-owner Nick Heineman said. The music and art space is located at the six-corner intersection of Lincoln, Lakewood, and George, in the building that once housed Elbo Room, which closed in 2019 after 30 years in Lakeview. "You definitely feel the energy of 30 years of musical performance down here. It's kind of a weird feeling," Heineman said. Bookclub's owners said it's the same, but different. "She definitely has the same spirit, and we have not changed anything structurally. We just are, you know, little aesthetic updates, changes," co-owner Maren Rosenberg said. "You definitely feel the presence of all the live music that came before us," co-owner Cam Stacey said. Bookclub dates back to 2021, when Stacey and co-owner Kevante "K.O." Weakley started an informal performance space near Irving Park Road and Broadway. "We sort of found ourselves hitting a plateau in terms of the types of artists we can service, the types of shows that we do, and the type of programming that we could put on," Weakley said. They realized the old Elbo Room was available, and started moving in last year. Shows at the new Bookclub started in January. There are now several owners, including a woman and members of the Black and queer communities. "Being owned by the types of people who we are means that we bring our unique perspectives, and that we're also going to be sensitive to and inclusive of all of those people," Rosenberg said. "It is sort of our job to just make sure that … they feel seen, they feel welcome," Weakley said. "It's paramount that you know that the place is safe, and there are people who are not only going to be looking out for your safety, but enforce a positive peace in the place that can allow you to be truly singular and be yourself," Stacey said. The owners said losing yourself in a show is what Bookclub is all about. "We're all here for the same reason. We love music. We love performance," Rosenberg said. "Generations pass, but music never fades," Heineman said. Bookclub features an innovative design. The stage is in the basement, and the main floor has a bar with a large screen showing the performance. So you can take a break and still be part of the show.
