(North Royalton) - It appears that police in suburban North Royalton are getting tired of answering 911 calls regarding daytime Coyote sightings. Though, they have kept a sense of humor - one based upon our shared memories of Saturday morning cartoons. Here's a recent post on the department's Facebook page:
"North Royalton Police Department
We have been made aware of coyote sightings within North Royalton. Typically coyotes are nocturnal, but it is not uncommon to see them during the day. Merely seeing one is NOT a reason to call 911. However, there are certain behaviors that are cause for alarm. Specifically:
1. Coyotes carrying any product marked "ACME".2. Coyotes dropping anvils from hot air balloons.3. Coyote posting signs such as "Detour" or "Free Bird Seed".4. Coyote in possession of a giant magnet.5. Coyote in possession of a catapult.6. Coyote detonating "TNT".7. Coyote on roller skates with rockets attached.
Please call 911 immediately if you witness any of the above behaviors."
