A 'severely habituated' 500-pound black bear continues to break into Tahoe Keys residents' homes — and divide the community.
reported that the bear, which has now"lost its fear of people," hasn't been stopped by law enforcement's use of paintballs, bean bags, sirens or stun guns. According to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, he’s been hazed more than 100 times, but that hasn’t stopped him either.
As a last resort, local authorities are now attempting to capture and possibly euthanize him — ultimately causing a firestorm on a national level. “Please stop calling SLTPD dispatch to voice your opinion about Hank,” South Lake Tahoe law enforcement’s says. “They're being inundated with aggressive callers, taking away from their ability to handle actual emergency calls.”
