Five-year-old girl bitten by coyote in California park

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS, KYMA/KECY) - Three coyotes were shot and killed at San Francisco's Botanical Garden after a five-year-old girl was bit while attending a camp there.

The girl is expected to be okay.

It happened on Friday, and the park was temporarily shut down until Monday.

Even though three coyotes have been put down, Fish and Game is still doing DNA testing to determine if they caught the one that bit the child.
