ANTHEM, Ariz. — A bobcat attacked two people and one dog in this area north of Phoenix, according to the Daisy Mountain Fire Department.

A bobcat was attacking a man and his dog Sunday in this community of about 30,000 residents 30 miles north of downtown Phoenix when a bystander jumped in to help. The bobcat then attacked the Good Samaritan as well, officials said.

The bystander had non life-threatening injuries, according to fire department officials. The man and his dog's condition were unknown Monday.

An adult bobcat is about twice the size of an average house cat and can weigh anywhere from 15 to 35 pounds, according to the Arizona Game and Fish Department. They stand between 18 and 24 inches tall and are 24 to 48 inches long.

A bobcat attack on a human is unusual, but those that do attack usually have symptoms of rabies, Game and Fish officials said. Bobcats are commonly seen throughout Arizona at all elevations.
