HOPKINS CO., Ky. (WFIE) - There’s been another bear sighting in Hopkins County, and this time it’s on video.

Casey Miller sent video to us Tuesday, but we’re not exactly sure when he took it.

He says the bear was spotted by some heating and air employees in Coiltown.

Officials with the sheriff’s office told us over the weekend that’s the area where a sighting had been reported.

Early last week, we spoke with people who had seen a bear in Daviess and Ohio Counties.

Kentucky Fish and Wildlife officials say this is fairly typical for this time of year, but the bears are just passing through.

They say you should leave them alone.
