Tuesday, September 30, 2008
LAKE TAHOE, Nev. The bear strolled through a first set of automatic glass doors. It ran away when it reached the second set of doors.

Coincidentally, the bear had to walk past a six-foot tall fiberglass bear statue at the front entrance to the hospital. That statue is known as Doctor Bear.
