Maybe He Wanted To Go To UW?

A wild bear was killed in Seattle near the University. He was, in fact, finally run down very close to where my in-laws live. It is suspected that this is the same bear that was seen in Shoreline a week ago. The wildlife agents and police tried to capture him, but when he started chasing some cops they tasered him and gave him a second dose of tranquilizer, and that was apparently too much.

What's amazing is how the bear managed to get that far into Seattle without being seen more than (possibly) once. The University District isn't exactly rural. Wildlife officials think he traveled at night eating out of people's garbage cans.
