Residents Carolyn Hagan and Shirley Mattheus expressed concern not only for other pets but for children in the neighborhood too, especially during Halloween.
"Sometimes it's nine, 10 o'clock, 11 o'clock at night that I have kids in the neighborhood trick-or-treating," Mattheus said. "This is the time the animal comes out."
City officials say that Arlington Animal Services officers have done some patrolling in that neighborhood, but that they they don't "typically remove urban wildlife unless there is a public health threat."
