Taste by Spellbound in Avon, Connecticut. (Taste By Spellbound) Employees at a Connecticut bakery were left terrified last week after a hungry black bear barged into the garage and helped itself to 60 cupcakes.
Miriam Stephens, owner of Taste by Spellbound in the town of Avon, said workers were loading cakes into a van for delivery on Wednesday when the bear strolled in.
The employee "looked up and saw a bear staring at her from the South Windsor side," Stephens wrote in an Instagram post. "All of the sudden we hear her screaming bloody murder and then yelling, ‘there’s a bear in [the] garage!’" Williams told TV station WTNH that she shouted to scare the bear off, but it retreated and came back three times.
She said the bear charged at her, so she backed out of the garage and ran.PENNSYLVANIA BEAR THAT ATTACKED TWO YOUNG CHILDREN CAPTURED, EUTHANIZED: OFFICIALSSurveillance video obtained by WTNH shows bakery workers walking around the side of the business to try to scare the bear, but then running away after it scares them.The video shows the bear dragging a container of cupcakes from the garage into the parking lot.
