Local Police Warn of Black Bear Sightings

Multiple residents have reported seeing a large black bear in Osseo’s west side. 

The Osseo Police department posted on Facebook that they are aware of the sightings.  Police warn and want people to be aware of items left outside.  They said bears can be attracted to food scraps, dog food and even bird feeders.  Police say if you do come across a black bear to yell loud or make loud noises to scare them off, and then to reach out to police.
