The National Institutes of Health posted a document on google: Detection of Group 1 coronavirus in Bats in North America.

These bats were caught in August 2006 in Colorado and their feces were kept. When tested for our new virus the feces were positive in some of 2 types of Rocky Mountain bats.

Group 1 coronavirus is also known as SARS. That's a different coronavirus, and not COVID-19.
