EAST BROOKFIELD (CBS) — It’s the time of year some residents may see bears.

And lately, they are showing no fear in one central Massachusetts town.

East Brookfield Police posted a photo on their Facebook page of one bear that literally came knocking at someone’s sliding glass door.

It happened Wednesday and experts say it was most likely looking for food.

There have been a number of recent sightings, including one last weekend, right in the middle of Route 31 and another in Leicester.
