VERNON, NJ-September 18, 2003 — Vernon police fatally shoot a black bear after it twice broke into the basement of a township home this week.

The three-year-old female bear first entered the home early Tuesday by breaking a glass door. A neighbor saw what happened and notified the home's owner, Rosemary DeLorenzo, who fled with her two children. The neighbor then scared the bear off with an air horn and the family returned home.

But the 181-pound bear returned several hours later when DeLorenzo was home alone, and she called police. The bear left when the officers arrived and then wandered around the neighborhood until it was shot in the chest by an unidentified officer.

No one was hurt in either instance. And DeLorenzo declined to comment on the matter.

Maybe the bear was looking for shelter from Isabel?

I've been to Innsbruck but never flew in Europe.

My dad had a scheme to outfit his 210 with auxiliary tanks and fly to Ireland via Greenland and Iceland - he never worked the kinks out (mom was strongly against the idea!)
