THE RECORD
RIDGEWOOD — A bear has climbed a tree along West Ridgewood Avenue across from the Ridge Elementary School, authorities said.
Dogs are being used to keep the bear in the tree until representatives from the state’s Division of Fish and Wildlife “can come get him,” Mayor Paul Aronsohn said.
There is a significant police presence in the area. Tyco Animal Control was called in to assist, the mayor said.
