Deputies helped a home intruder escape from a Nevada City residence, and it was all caught on video.

The Nevada County Sheriff's Office says, early in the morning on June 13, they got a 911 call from a Nevada City resident reporting that a bear was in her home.

Several deputies and Nevada County Consolidated Fire Department firefighters responded to the home.

𝐀 “𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐲” 𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐄𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫: 𝐔𝐧𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐄𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐎𝐮𝐭 “Bear” with us and our terrible puns for this one. On June 13, a homeowner called 911 at 4:39 a.m. after discovering a bear inside her Nevada City residence. Three deputies of the Nevada County Sheriff’s Office (NCSO) responded to assist with the bear, along with firefighters from Nevada County Consolidated FD (NCCFD) for any medical needs. While the team checked on the homeowner outside, Deputy Lewis of NCSO and Captain Menet of NCCFD searched the interior of the residence and located the bear in a stairwell. The team opened doors and windows to help the bear exit and thankfully the bear opted not to “bear”-icade himself and left peacefully out a window. While some mornings start off un-“bear”-able, this one wasn’t too bad for the books.

Searching the home, deputies soon found the bear still inside in a stairwell.

Doors and windows were opened and the bear was then coaxed out of the home by first responders.

No injuries were reported. 

The incident is a reminder for residents to be Bear Aware, keeping entrances to homes closed and food -- especially pet food -- inside.
