Tar on Leather Seats

So awhile back had my car in my driveway and the roof of the house was getting worked on(didnt know until I woke up), went out and saw that there had been a small rock covered with tar on my passenger seat.

So just wondering if there any products that would help remove the tar?
Or if theres any products at all? lol...couldnt find anything except for exterior finishes. (Not sure if that would ruin the leather).

Thanks,
Jeff

dry cleaning solvent should work.... try it on a hidden spot first to see if the color runs or not
