Bear falls out of tree on campus

BOULDER, Colo. -- Wildlife officials tranquilized a 60-pound bear that found a resting spot in a tree on the University of Colorado campus. The 2-year-old bear was spotted Friday and stayed in the tree for about four hours until wildlife officers used a dart gun to tranquilize it. The bear fell about 30 feet, hitting some mats before rolling onto the ground. It briefly popped its head up before falling asleep. Jennifer Churchill of Colorado Parks and Wildlife says the bear will be relocated.
