Deputies Have Right To 'Bear Arms' During Break-In

DURANGO, Colo. (CBS4) - Sheriff's deputies said they exercised their right to "bear arms" during a recent jail break-in.

The La Plata County Sheriff's Office posted about it to Twitter, with photos, after a bear scaled its way into a secured area.

Ultimately the bear escaped, fleeing the area on foot.
