Hawley assumed she was the victim of a robbery and called the police. Once in the home, the Vail police suspected the intruder was an animal and asked to review surveillance footage.

To everyone's surprise, a large black bear appeared in the footage and seemed to enjoy playing the piano and made off with some food from the freezer.

It is believed that the bear got in through an open window, according to local reports.

According to Fox5, the bear had a little rummage around the bedroom as well as the kitchen.

NDTV reports that a number of people took to Twitter to share gifs and puns about the scene.

And one user made reference to the film the Revenant.
