Woman finds bear in kitchen of Altadena home

ALTADENA — A woman encountered a large burgling bear inside the kitchen of her home at the northern end of Altadena Friday, officials said.
The four-legged intruder was reported about 11:10 a.m. at a house in the 1300 block of Sunny Oaks Circle, Los Angeles County sheriff’s Sgt. Booker Hollis said.
A woman walked into her kitchen to find a bear helping itself to her food, the sergeant said.
“She screamed,” he said. “The bear went out, did some rummaging in a trash can, then left prior to deputies’ arrival.”
Fish and game officials were also notified, Hollis added, but the bears were gone before they arrived, Hollis said.
The bear was seen heading back into the woods, accompanied by two cubs, officials said.
