She scooped him up, they both leapt onto the counter, located where the bear was, and then booked it outta there!<\/p>\n<p>That was one wild, lucky escape &#8230; especially since surveillance shows the bear was basically doing a full 10-minute grocery run inside the store. Also, the Pennsylvania Game Commission says bears are on the prowl for snacks this time of year &#8230; which explains why these furry foodies sometimes crash the wrong aisle.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, it\u2019s a moment Cole will never forget &#8212; and hey, he&#8217;s made it clear outrunning a bear has definitely earned him some bragging rights at school!\ud83d\udc3b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pennsylvania The Bear Ditch Project\ud83d\udc3b Bear Pursues Boy Inside Dollar Store!!!
