A seventh coyote attack has been reported along Frisco's Eldorado Parkway, six weeks after city officials captured an animal suspected in the first five attacks and launched a map to report sightings.

The latest incident occurred around 6:40 a.m. Tuesday, when a coyote attacked a man running near Eldorado Parkway and Tangerine Lane. The man was able to fight off the coyote and was treated for minor injuries.

Three people, including a 9-year-old, reported being attacked in October and November. Frisco police also spotted a coyote stalking a runner Nov. 11 but scared it away with a siren.

In December, two women jogging in the area also were attacked. After their ordeal, officials caught the coyote thought to be responsible and sent it for testing.

But a couple of weeks later, a coyote attacked a small dog walking with its owner near Preston Road. The dog survived, and the owner was not hurt.

The aggressive attacks are anomalies, according to Sam Kieschnick, an urban biologist with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, and have been noticed by experts across the nation.
