New Canaan (WTIC Radio) - New Canaan Police remind pet owners to be vigilant after two coyote attacks this week in the South Western area of the town.
Police report a coyote grabbed, killed and ran off with a Chihuahua mix Thursday morning. The incident occurred after an Adams Lane resident attempted to chase it down with another one nearby.
Officials also report a Labrador Retriever of Knapp Lane sustained puncture wounds on its hind leg Monday. Police say it's believed a coyote caused the injury after the dog owner saw two large coyotes in his yard.
