Gentle Bear Breaks Into Candy Shop, Gorges Self on Chocolate and Media Attention

Jo could see the shape of its body and then noticed some round, black fuzzy ears on top of its head and realized the culprit was a black bear ... Some time during the night, this young bear broke into the shop and made himself quite at home, enjoying lots and lots of chocolatey treats.
Sorry, bear, you just got upstaged by people.
