STREETSBORO, Ohio, Aug. 6 (UPI) — Authorities in Ohio say a black bear is the prime suspect in putting a huge hole in the wall of a home and smashing out a basement window.
The Ohio Division of Wildlife said the damage to Steve Lenart’s home in Streetsboro this week included a hole ripped through an outside wall that extends through the inside drywall to expose the motor of the home’s kitchen dishwasher. The damage bore claw marks and paw prints consistent with those of a black bear, WJW-TV, Cleveland, reported Thursday.
