Authorities in San Francisco may have killed a coyote that bit a 5-year-old girl at the San Francisco Botanical Garden last week.

The incident happened late Friday morning while the girl was at a supervised summer camp at the garden in Golden Gate Park. Officials said the girl was bit from behind by the coyote. She suffered minor injuries and was expected to be okay.

The incident prompted city officials to temporarily close the garden over the weekend. San Francisco Wildlife officials have since killed three coyotes in the area.
