Four bears killed at Alaska park reserved for homeless people

Bears were stealing food from tents at campground in Anchorage that provides shelter but is also bear country

Alaska wildlife officials have killed four black bears in a campground recently reserved for people in Anchorage who are homeless after the city's largest shelter was closed.

Employees from the Alaska department of fish and game on Tuesday killed a sow and her two cubs and another adult bear that was acting separately, stealing food from tents inside Centennial Park, which is managed by the city, officials said.
