Video shows moment bear freed after getting stuck in car and ripping it to shreds

Police in Colorado have warned residents about keeping food in their vehicles after a hungry bear broke into a car before becoming stuck and trashing its interior.

Garfield County Sheriff’s Office said in a post on Facebook on Monday that police were called out to a report that a bear was stuck in a car.

“A very good reason NOT to leave food in your vehicle,” they said in a post alongside footage of the dramatic incident.
