Bear Breaks Into Asheville Home | Greenville News

A bear slipped into a home in Asheville, NC, on Aug. 18 around 9 PM—nudging through a door, startling the occupant, and possibly swiping at them before fleeing. Firefighters arrived, sounded sirens to scare it off, but found nothing by the time they got there. Paramedics checked the resident and transported them for evaluation. Wildlife officials joined the investigation. This incident serves as a wake-up call: keep your home secure, remove attractants like food, and if you spot a bear, give it space—don’t approach.
