Two people were hospitalized Monday in central North Carolina after being attacked by what is believed to be a coyote.
TV station WXII is reporting the victims were a father and daughter.
The Davie County Sheriff’s Office is warning people that the animal is still on the loose. It’s the second time this year that a coyote attack has been reported outside a Davie County home.
The sheriff’s office posted an animal attack advisory late Monday on Facebook, reporting the two victims were attacked about 3:15 p.m. Monday. The department believes the animal was a coyote, but has not yet confirmed it, says the post.
