This is the best summary I could come up with:
mother is recounting the harrowing story of hiding from a bear that invaded her home in Rossland, B.C., about 380 kilometres east of Vancouver, while she and her 9-year-old daughter were hosting a friend for a sleepover.
Katherine Rice said she never actually saw the bear that entered her home through the front door, but she heard noises that alerted her to the unwelcome visitor as she was getting ready to go to bed late Saturday.
After waking up the girls and telling them what was happening, Rice said she called 911 and asked the operator to send the RCMP.
When police officers arrived, they had to force the front door open to create a way for the animal to leave the house, according a written statement from Trail RCMP.
The animal moved to the basement where it ripped up flooring and tore holes in the drywall, according to Rice, who estimated the bear was in the home for more than an hour in total, before it finally ran out the front door.
Rice and the girls made the right decision to hide from the bear and not try to flee the home with the wild animal inside, said Trail RCMP Sgt.
