Black bear walks into a gas station bar, takes a pack of gummy bears and leaves
Jay and Karen deGoesbriand serve a variety of customers at their tiny Tipton Gas Bar in Lake Cowichan on Vancouver Island — about a 92-kilometre drive northwest of Victoria — but they never expected a black bear to make it to their list of clientele.
Security camera footage from the store caught the bear casually walking in at around 6:30 a.m. on Monday, going through racks of chocolate bars before grabbing a 70-cent pack of gummy bears in its jaws and taking off — without paying.
"Mr. Bear then went out in the parking lot and ate it," said Jay, who was drinking coffee behind the counter at the time of the candy robbery.
The husband-and-wife duo said the bear didn't appear to be aggressive at all, but the brazen theft from the furry shoplifter certainly left an impression.
"I thought it was so cool," Karen said. "Obviously [the bear] has a sweet tooth."
