Officials have not yet determined if the attacks were carried out by the same tiger.
Sumatran tigers are considered critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature with fewer than 400 believed to remain in the wild.
They are often targeted by poachers while rampant deforestation has significantly reduced their habitat.
Rianto said the tiger captured on Saturday will undergo medical treatment and would be released into a nearby national park once it had recovered from its injuries.
