[Regnum] An aggressive bear posing a threat to people was eliminated near private homes in Krasnoyarsk. The regional Ministry of Internal Affairs reported this on November 8.
Last night, police received a report of a predator on Kolkhoznaya Street in the Sverdlovsky District. Residents reported that the bear was growling and nearly killed a stray dog. By the time law enforcement arrived, the wild animal had moved to 2-ya Borovaya Street.
