TRIBECA — Not even the Road Runner attracted as many coyotes as Manhattan does these days.

For the fourth time this year, New Yorkers spotted a coyote in the city on Wednesday, this time hanging out around the entrance to the Holland Tunnel.

Residents tweeted about the sighting on Twitter and tracked the animal from the tunnel to Warren and Greenwich Streets in TriBeCa, before it headed south on Varick and Thomas streets, ABC 7 reported.

The coyote was last seen in TriBeCa, the NYPD said.

Police caught a coyote in Washington Heights in January, and another one was found loitering around Columbia University in February.

Earlier this month, a coyote escaped from police who attempted to catch the animal in Chelsea.
