BLACKSBURG, S.C. -- A Blacksburg man accused of stealing a bear cub from an Upstate animal park is still in jail Wednesday. Meanwhile, his cousin says she took the bear from his home and brought it back to the zoo after he told her he had stolen it.
Investigators say Saturday night, John Chadwick Montgomery broke into Hollywild Animal park and absconded with Newell, a 7-month old black bear. Joy Crawford says Montgomery, her cousin, pulled up into her driveway on Sunday and told her he had stolen a bear.
"He said he just wanted a bear," says Crawford. (via)i feel ya, sir. thx alexandria!
