Bear spotted frolicking across driveway in Ventura County neighborhood
Authorities are advising residents of one Ventura County neighborhood to be on the lookout for a bear that was spotted ambling through a driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac.
The Santa Paula Police Department was first notified of the bear sighting early Thursday morning, a Facebook post from the department indicated.
Where it was first spotted was not immediately released.
Almost 24 hours later at 5 a.m. Friday, the bear was seen again, this time maneuvering between parked cars and a garage on Leavens Court, located off Richard Road in Santa Paula.
Video posted by the department shows the bear – which several commenters speculated to be a cub – frolicking across the driveway of a home.
According to police, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was dispatched to confirm the bear’s location, but they could not find it.
The bear was last seen heading south from Leavens Court, authorities said.
Anyone who spots the bear is asked to call the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at 805-644-1766. Calls can also be directed to the Santa Paula Police Department’s non-emergency line at 805-525-4474.
