A pair of sweet-toothed bears are on the run after breaking
into a beekeeper's farm and stealing thousands of dollars' worth of honey.
The brazen bears sauntered into the Ballard Bee Company’s
Washington rural HQ before escaping with an estimated $1,200 (£700) worth of

'We had early trick-or-treaters at the farm today,' Ballard

The light-fingered grizzlies left a trail of destruction
behind them, breaking up two hives in last week's honey heist.
