Police officers in the US state of California were called out to an unusual trespasser at a home in the city of Burbank.
When they arrived at the scene police officers were amazed to see a bear escaping from the sweltering heat by splashing around in the hot tub of a neighborhood home.
As the authorities kept a watchful eye on proceedings, the bear decided it was time for a change of scenery.
The bear scaled a nearby wall and perched itself atop a tree where it remained for several hours.
Eventually, without causing any further commotion, the bear descended from the tree and wandered off into the tranquil Verdugo Mountain area.
