Justin McVey, wildlife biologist with the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commission, said he was able to pull the lid off the bear’s head after he found her walking through an East Asheville neighborhood about 10 a.m. and shot her with a tranquilizer dart.

He said the agency has been working around the clock to locate the bear since they were first notified about her by a homeowner around 5 p.m. on April 21.
