Two people attacked by coyotes in Chicago

The hunt is on for a wild coyote on the loose in downtown Chicago. Authorities caught one animal Thursday night after two reported attacks, but one is still on the run. In one instance, two athletes at DePaul University said they kicked a coyote away after it attacked a 6-year-old boy on Wednesday. That same day, another man showed up at the hospital saying he had been attacked by a coyote. Experts say the animals are in the city searching for food because of the cold weather.
