Police arrived and managed to briefly scare the bear away using air horns and by throwing water bottles at it. The bear returned a short while later and attempted to open the family's garage. It then chased a man down the street, who was fortunately able to seek safety in his truck.

Police coordinated with Conservation, and it was decided the bear was aggressive and lacked fear of humans. Sadly, the RCMP euthanized the bear, which was later determined to be a male, weighing approximately 220 to 250 pounds.

Thankfully, no humans were injured during the incident.
