Coyote officials thought they had killed after child attack seen alive in LA neighborhood

Animal that menaced residents was shot in October but then reappeared - and was shot for a second time and killed

A coyote that California wildlife officials believed they had euthanized after it bit a toddler and menaced residential pets in a trendy Los Angeles neighborhood was seen alive recently, neighborhood residents said.

Wiley, the name some Atwater Village residents gave to the coyote, had vexed the area with its increasingly aggressive and brazen behavior. The wild animal, which scampered through people's backyards, was reportedly being fed by an unidentified man. Wiley's presence drew local uproar after he bit a 16-month-old child.
