A bear that broke into a Colorado home made a wild escape to avoid being taken into custody when law enforcement arrived.
The bear may have been attracted to the scent of garbage when it entered a home near Fall River Road in Estes Park, Colorado, Friday night, according to a statement from the Estes Park Police Department.
Photos police posted to Facebook show a large hole next to the home's door, which the bear created to make its getaway. Bears in the area are so habituated to retreiving food from vehicles that some are going car to car to see if they are unlocked, even if they don't see or smell food, according to the department.
