Townsfolk upset over police killing of alleged coyote

Some Collingwood residents are upset because OPP apparently chose to run over a coyote which they deemed to be dangerous. They then shot the animal. The incident was captured on video in darkness by a man who says he thinks the animal was in fact his blind and deaf dog. It isn’t clear why this question might be in doubt. Police are said to have the carcass in refrigeration. Police were called to a location in Collingwood after dark by someone who said a large coyote was roaming the streets. The police say that “for the safety of the community police had to put down this animal.” The incident occurred October 19, ,2015. CP24
