GATLINBURG, Tenn. (WATE) — A black bear went for a joyride, or at least he tried to.
Video posted on Facebook by user Gatlinburg Girl shows the bear climb right into the back of a truck. She said the incident occurred off of Baskins Creek in Gatlinburg on June 5 just before 3 p.m.
“He was just going to help himself to whatever was in that truck,” she wrote. “Thankful to the man who was honking his horn to get him out of there!”
