Question about Zombies!

I just wanted a heads up if you guys know the answer to this. If a zombie sees you and starts to chase you does that zombie alert the rest of its pack? Or is it only the zombie you alerted who runs at you? This came to mind when I had a crossbow, which is the earliest form of a silent weapon for a survivor. And if a zombie were to see me and I pop it with my crossbow I won't attract all the zombies.

no, only the alert zombie runs after you. just the level of alertness you emit when running away or shooting the zombie is usually what gets the rest

The Zed's might actually be able to alert others. I've had experiences where the shriek of one appeared to attract the others in a close vicinity. This was when I was crouching and not moving.
