Mischievous bear targets vehicles in Minden area ADAM FRISK Journalist
A mischievous bear was up to no good in the Minden area, gaining access to a
few vehicles in the dead of night. “I went out in the morning and my truck door was open, it was very peculiar, I didn’t think I left it open,” Pam Sayne, Minden Hills councillor said in a July 15 telephone interview, noting a second
vehicle also had its doors open. “We were concerned as to what was going on.” Sayne said she reached out to a neighbour who texted back a photo of a bear on his property. Yet another neighbour also had a bear on his property, but this time
the animal’s shenanigans were captured on video. Jeff Gray arrived home in the morning after spending the night at his family’s see SECURITY page 14
