Joakima Douglas shared a video on social media to prove to anyone who thought that she has a great imagination of seeing a cub that fled from the woods nearby on Sunday 11 days ago when she was going to see a movie at the Avalon Shopping Center when she her chance to be a news hound when the cub was seen trying to get inside of the businesses with no success.
The bear after he had failed to get inside the businesses inside of the mall which were likely closed since it was on Sunday daytime hours or the mall officials had the doors locked since they must have seen a bear coming toward the building.
What happened next to the bear according to officials with the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety was that the bear was struck by an auto driven by an irate driver or a driver who was scared of seeing a bear.
Since the bear was not seriously injured, the bear then went on to knock over garbage cans to get food before running away to the woods near the shopping mall.
It is a shame that bears these days are running out of food to eat in the woods to the point where they are not visiting shopping malls to search for food.

Yes the shopping mall is near a jungle based on the eyewitnesses who shop at the Avalon Shopping Center.

@Deepizzaguy Oh. From the word itself. Avalon means some sort of wildlife. Am I correct?

The bear may have suffered a minor injury since according to the eyewitnesses, the bear did not imp at all.

I hope so as well since bears have to find food wherever they can find it if the homes where they come from are depleted of their source of survival.

That is true since the garbage can is easier to find food instead of entering through a locked door.
