Officials in California announced this week that four individuals were arrested in an insurance scheme that allegedly included one person wearing a bear costume in a staged attack. California is no stranger to bears breaking into vehicles, but when footage surfaced of bears slipping into luxury cars, it alerted insurers that something was amiss.

Bear attack’ on Rolls-Royce was person in costume attempting insurance scam, say police - Biologist who reviewed the footage for the insurance claims said it was ‘clearly a human in a bear suit’

The California Department of Insurance said the four men claimed a bear entered their 2010 Rolls Royce Ghost and damaged the interior while at Lake Arrowhead on Jan. 28. They provided surveillance footage to their insurance company as proof. But the video proved their story false.
