Incident: Black Bear Sighting

The Department of Public Safety is alerting community members about a reported sighting of a black bear in Princeton Township. A Princeton University staff member saw the black bear around 5:30 a.m. today.

The black bear was reported last seen in the area of the Hun School in Princeton at about 8 a.m. The bear did not come in contact with any person, nor did it present any threat.

Princeton Borough Police, Princeton Township Police, Animal Control and the Division of Wildlife Fish and Game were alerted to this report.

If you see a bear, do not approach or attempt to feed it, but please contact the Princeton Borough Police, Princeton Township Police, or Public Safety, or just dial 911 and give the exact location of the animal. Leave the area calmly and slowly.
