A Bear's Gotta Eat

Workers for American Plate Glass in Sunapee, New Hampshire, learned an important lesson about locking up their valuables, but it wasn't at the hands of the typical thief, and the valuables weren't the usual tools or construction materials.

Curtis Fidler was working onsite when he noticed movement in his peripheral vision: "I turn and it was a bear nonchalantly just having lunch in the front seat of the truck."

The bear enjoyed all of the snacks it could find, left the truck and disappeared into the woods.

Fidler FaceTimed his mother-in-law, Melinda Scott, who watched the encounter live and later told WHDH-7 News that "There is not a single scratch on the box truck. He did no damage. He just had lunch and took a nap." [WHDH-7, 6/15/2023]
