wretch card question

By monk, in Gears of War: The Board Game

On one of the Wretch AI cards it says something along the lines of (I can't remember exact wording) '...move wretch to the nearest COG figure and attack if COG is not in cover (if able)...'

Does that mean that if the wretch moves to the area with 1 COG in it and the COG is in cover the wretch does not attack? Or does it just suggest that if it moves into an area with multiple COGs it must look to attack a COG not in cover, and if there are none it instead attacks a COG in cover?

This was just answered in a previous thread!
