This has always happened in homes by the foothills. Bears in pools, on your driveway, looking through trash. People don't realize how much legitimate wilderness there is here.

I hope they let him enjoy and leave at his own pace, but the involvement of the police sadly suggests otherwise.

"After a short dip, the bear climbed over a wall and headed to a tree behind the home, police said in a statement Friday."
