Wood TV has released a report that the bear was recently stolen, and the community is coming together to try to reunite the bear with its owner:

The black bear, who was last seen wearing a ring, necklace, watch, fake sheriff badge and holster with a toy gun, was stolen from the front porch of a home on Lakeshore Drive home in Ganges Township on Jan. 19. Home security footage shows a male or female suspect with a thin to medium build wearing glasses and black clothes dragging the bear off into the night.

There's somebody in the comment section of a Facebook post who believes they know who may have taken the bear:

Yah I know this bear and the owner. I'm thinking it was an ex-employee always trying to get something out of this man.

This man clearly has a bad attitude if he'd go ahead and steal a bear that isn't his. Maybe this is just one of the reasons she'll always choose the bear. Of course, the police have not identified the gender of the thief, so for now we'll just say they're simply unbearable.
