A bear locked itself into a car - and no one is quite sure how it did it

And the officers who released the poor animal caught it on video.

As they'll tell you themselves, the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office in Colorado is well used to wildlife related incidents - but even this was a first for them.

Yesterday, two of their deputies received a call about a bear that had somehow managed to get itself locked in a car. So they went to the person's house to investigate.
