Judy Arenas takes a club when she walks outside her home in the 1600 block of Canterbury Court. Her husband, Fred, brings a golf club. Marla Goldberg - who lives on the same block - sounds an air horn and keeps her porch lights on all night.

The Arenas and Goldbergs joined about 20 of their neighbors to complain about brazen coyotes at an Arlington Heights village board meeting Monday night. Most of the neighbors worry about their dogs and live near Greenbrier Elementary School.

They're sick and tired of trying to get along with the native animals - they want the coyotes trapped and taken out of the area.
