A bear, prowling for pre-hibernation snacks, raided the kitchen of a luxury Colorado resort and injured a responding security guard, authorities said Tuesday. The late-night food run unfolded around 11 p.m. Monday at the St. Regis Aspen Resort in Aspen when the guard surprised the four-legged intruder in the kitchen, according to a Colorado Parks and Wildlife statement. The bear attacked and knocked the guard down before he got away and called 911, officials said.
'Wildlife officers were also able to get a description of the bear, including specific identification markers to assist in locating and properly identifying the bear,' the statement said. Wildlife officers believe they spotted the animal later Tuesday but said they couldn't 'tranquilize and capture the bear' due to 'public safety' concerns. 'This incident serves as an unfortunate reminder that bears are still active as they prepare for hibernation,' CPW said.
