Twitter abuzz over lion in the streets of Braamfontein
You can't blame overseas tourists for asking that ignorant question - do lions walk around in the streets in South Africa?
On Monday night there was a lion in a Johannesburg street.
However, it was all reportedly part of a movie being filmed in Braamfontein.
