Bear breaks into Colorado school, sparks evacuation and safety measures
Unprecedented scenes occurred at Aspen School District Middle School in the American state of Colorado. A bear broke into the facility, necessitating the intervention of wildlife officers.
It is well known that a close encounter with a bear can have tragic consequences. Therefore, it is no surprise that after such an animal broke into a school in Colorado, great anxiety spread among the students and teachers. Everyone was terrified.
The people in the facility were evacuated. The bear was most interested in what was happening in the cafeteria, likely drawn by the smells.
A group of wildlife officers, supported by police officers from two departments, finally "asked the bear to leave" the school.

The Pitkin County Sheriff's office recounted the entire situation on Facebook. It was revealed that students and teachers were evacuated to neighbouring buildings on the campus and that services made efforts to deal with the problem.
While some kids are tough to get out of bed and going on Monday mornings, that was not the case for this little bear. Sometime early Monday morning, a small black bear cub found its way into the Aspen School District Middle School and ended up sniffing its way into the school’s cafeteria. All students were sent to other buildings on campus while deputies and officers from the Sheriff’s Office, Aspen Police Department, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife helped remove the little cub from the school. The cub was relocated and all students were back to their regular Monday morning activities by 9:30 AM, reports the Pitkin County Sheriff's office.
