Neighbor who fed Atwater Village coyote may face charges

A neighbor in Atwater Village is facing potential criminal charges after reportedly feeding a coyote for months, which contributed to a recent attack on a 16-month-old child. Wildlife officials confirmed the attacked coyote was euthanized, and the neighbor may be charged with illegal feeding of wildlife. Residents had previously complained about the coyote's increasingly bold behavior, raising concerns about the dangers of feeding wild animals in residential areas.
