He was stabbed in the throat, Sgt. Eric Franz told WCPO, which said authorities were working on a suspect description.
"Right now there are too many … they are interviewing all the witnesses," Franz said. "It's going to take a brief period to get a good, accurate description."
Security guards were searching trash cans and recovered "a black pocket knife," Corey Bramel told the station.
The zoo remained open, and police said there's no danger to the public, WCPO reported.
