Amy Truett who is a resident of Potomac Montana woke up around 3:30 in the morning when she heard her dogs barking when a bear that broke into her pickup truck around Wednesday October 30. Amy went to work later that day and she was in shock that the bear broke her windshield, back window and the interior of her truck was broken into by a bear that did not find any food inside of the pickup truck. Amy believes that the bear was scared when he entered the pickup truck and he could not get out after the front door was closed. Amy is grateful that her friends and neighbors are donating money to repair the damages that the bear caused to her truck. Link is upi.com/1101730319680 via @upi

Yes the front door was open in terms of not being locked from the inside.

It is pretty amzing that the bear was able to actually break the windshield and other windows. The bear probably was scared and didn't know about doors.

Poor bear was hungry and desperate to find some food and getting stuck inside also scared him, I am glad she can get her truck repaired,

A bear could do a lot of damage to the inside of a vehicle.

It sounds a bit short-sighted still to go to work, and leave the bear in her truck. Maybe she should have rang someone to help her get the bear out from her truck, before she went off to work.

I'll bet she doesn't leave the door open again. I'm sorry that her truck was damaged.
