CITRUS HEIGHTS, Calif. — Coyotes are probably killing animals in Citrus Heights, according to the Citrus Heights Police Department's Facebook post.
Police said they are aware of social media posts in some groups that dead animals are being found.
Chad Morris, a spokesman for the Citrus Heights Police Department said they did not receive any official reports of someone seeing a coyote.
It's not clear if the animals that were killed were pets.
