Butler Township police are warning residents that a black bear and three cubs were spotted in the September Drive area.

Channel 11 received a photo of an adult bear and three cubs from a viewer on September Drive. The bears were spotted in the viewer’s yard.

Residents in the Dutchtown Village area should move bird feeders, food and trash to a secure area, and keep pets in a safe area, police said.

A woman and her dog were attacked by a bear in Butler Township in March. Lee Ann Galante told Channel 11 she’s healing after the attack.

On May 6, police in nearby Penn Township warned residents about a female bear and three cubs being spotted in the area.

X should bring back stars, not hide 'Likes'
Elon Musk's X is preparing to make "Likes" private on the social network, in a change that could potentially confuse users over the difference between something they've favorited and something they've bookmarked. According to new posts by company employees, the decision to hide "Likes" is meant to incentivize engagement, by allowing people to favorite content that seems "edgy" and to protect their public image. The change comes across as somewhat unnecessary, given that X, the company formerly known as Twitter, already had a private way to save posts on the platform: Bookmarks.
