Bear Euthanized After Aggressive Actions

A bear was euthanized in West Springfield  this past weekend.  

Environmental police put the black bear down after  it broke into a storage area of a residential part of the town on Sunday  morning.

Environmental police are  reminding people not to feed bears and to remove bird feeders and store  garbage securely inside.
