"We got five calls at [the emergency number] 112 from Sibiu people who told us they saw the bear cub. It was located and we asked for the help of a veterinarian of the zoo, with a tranquilizer gun," ISU spokesperson Bianca Sabau told AGERPRES.
No one has complained so far of being wounded by the young bear.
This was the first time a wild bear was seen on the streets of Sibiu; such incidents have often occurred in the city of Brasov, 140 kilometres east. AGERPRES
