Durham, N.C. — A man says that he and his wife had a close encounter with a bear while taking their newborn baby home from Durham Regional Hospital shortly before midnight Friday.

The sightings came as Durham animal control officers, police officials and residents have reported seeing a bear wandering around neighborhoods and near stores since Thursday.

Steve Jones, a Triangle blogger, shared a picture he took Saturday night of a bear in a wooded area Edison Johnson Rec Center, on Murray Avenue, and the hospital, at 3643 N. Roxboro St.

Jim Yuill said that his family had just gotten into their vehicle Friday night when they saw what he thought was a person in a bear suit bounding towards them in the hospital parking lot. As it moved closer, Yuill said, he quickly realized it was a real bear.
