From the _Denver Post:
_
_An aggressive coyote snatched a Chihuahua off a park walking path, within feet of the pet’s startled owner, and ran off with the dog. . . .
_
_The Colorado Division of Wildlife is trying to track the coyote, said spokeswoman Jennifer Churchill, because the attack occurred so close to the dog’s owner in a heavily used public space. . .
_
_If wildlife officials positively identify the coyote in the attack, it will be destroyed.
