Watch: Bear pulls open door on unexpected visit to police station
The bear was chased out by two armed officers shortly afterwards.
Remarkable CCTV footage shows the moment a bear opened a door to a police station and popped in for a visit.
The video from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) station in Truckee shows the bear standing on its hind legs and pulling the door open from its handle, shortly before it is chased out by two armed officers.
The account later shared another video of the bear caught on its outdoors CCTV, this time showing it investigating a large dustbin.
“This is unbearable! It could have been a grizzly situation,” wrote one user.
“I guess he doesn’t like your selection of snacks or he ran out of change,” wrote another, referencing the vending machines seen by the entrance to the police station.
