A bear rampaged through a Russian shopping mall before escaping and being shot dead by police.
Local TV station MestoproTV released the video showing the bear roaming around the mall and then escaping shortly after much to the horror of onlookers.
The bear pushed open the door of the mall and headed off down the street to a nearby playground. Law enforcement officers were in pursuit of the bear and it was shot dead at the playground.
The Investigative Committee, Russia’s main state investigative agency, has launched an enquiry into how the police handled the situation and ultimately the legitimacy of their actions.

“We can conclude that the inexperienced bear decided to swim across the Amur River in search of a den,” Andrey Mamayev, head of the state hunting monitoring agency told Russia Today.
There were no injuries reported from the incident.
