Tennessee Body Shop Sees Influx of Bear vs. Car Cases

Randy’s Customs body shop says it has seen three times as many bear vs. car cases this year than it normally sees, one amounting to $11,000 in damages.

bearWVLT Volunteer TV in Knoxville, Tenn., reported on Sept. 30th that Randy’s Customs body shop is seeing an influx of bear vs. car cases.

Most of the cars the shop fixes are involved in collisions. But a car was brought to Randy’s on the morning of Sept. 30th after a bear made its way inside and caused an estimated $11,000 in damage.

The owner, WVLT reported, caught the whole ordeal on camera.

Randy’s Customs owner Skyler Wolfe told WLVT that they usually only see about two to three bear cases a year. But this year, he says they’ve already seen around six.
