FRAZEE, Minn., July 30 (UPI) -- Police in a Minnesota town shot and killed a young black bear that got its head stuck in a large plastic jar rather than risk anyone getting hurt.
The 2-year-old male bruin had been sighted several times over a period of days in the Frazee area and then showed up during the town's Turkey Days celebration last weekend, the Star Tribune reported Wednesday. Police said they didn't have a tranquilizer gun readily available and so killed the bear to avoid anyone being injured, the newspaper said.
"With all the people around ... you're never sure what the outcome is going to be," said Rob Naplin, a state Department of Natural Resources wildlife supervisor.
