Tennessee Bear Breaks Into Van and Steals Bag of Popcorn
A hungry black bear was recorded opening a van door and grabbing a bag of popcorn, before running back into the woods in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, on November 11.
Video taken by Teniesh Pinnix shows the bear first try to open the door of a small car and then proceed to easily open the passenger door of a large cargo van.
“He just wanted some food,” Pinnix is overheard saying, relieved, as the bear is seen exiting the car with the bag of popcorn in its mouth. Credit: Teniesh Pinnix via Storyful
