Moraga police are warning people to remain vigilant, after a coyote attacked a man stretching at the Campolindo High School track Friday morning.
Police said the coyote bit the man at about 6:30 a.m., but, luckily, another runner was able to chase the coyote away.
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife was alerted, according to officials.
Police said that in another incident, officers saw a coyote walking through the Rheem Center parking lot, where one person tried to feed it near the Starbucks.
Officials are reminding people to never try to feed a coyote, and if you are being followed by one, make loud noises.
If this fails, people are advised to throw rocks or other things in the animal's direction.
Also, people should remain aware of their surroundings when outside and keep small children and pets close.
