Photos: Ninja bear scales roof, evades cops in Avon

AVON – Avon police were chasing a bear around town Wednesday afternoon after it climbed onto a roof and then into a tree.

Witnesses saw the bear climb a tree and then jump onto the roof of the building that contains the Avon Bag and Pack and No Se Hagan Bolas.

It then somehow got off the roof and climbed a tree near Columbine Bakery.
