The California Department of Insurance teamed up with San Bernardino County authorities to lead “Operation Bear Claw,” which determined that the four people attempted to defraud insurance companies by claiming a bear had entered their luxury cars and caused interior damage.

Officials in California announced this week that four individuals were arrested in an insurance scheme that allegedly included one person wearing a bear costume in a staged attack. California is no stranger to bears breaking into vehicles, but when footage surfaced of bears slipping into luxury cars, it alerted insurers that something was amiss.

Four people are under arrest for allegedly using a bear costume to damage their luxury vehicles and filing false insurance claims, authorities said.
