Suspects allegedly wore bear suit to damage cars, defraud insurance agencies, officials say
Briefly

The suspects, claiming a bear damaged their Rolls-Royce, provided video evidence which, upon investigation, revealed a human in a bear costume.
Biologists from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife confirmed the video showed a person in a bear suit, dismissing the claim.
Investigators discovered additional fraudulent claims from the same suspects for two more vehicles, using similar tactics and claiming damages from a fictitious bear.
The four individuals orchestrated a scheme to defraud insurance companies out of $141,839 by fabricating a bear attack on their luxury cars.
