[Report] From the sighting point it crossed the road toward the elementary school side and entered the school grounds or toward the playground. It was a momentary event. I confirmed it from inside a car parked on the road about 80 meters away. The body seemed to be about 1 meter (long). Afterwards it moved closer to the playground; I scanned from inside the car but could not find the bear.
