The third time might be a charm, but the fourth night a male black bear visited a home near Statesboro, it meant capture. The curious bear caused trouble as he visited Craig Bozman's Highway 67 home each night Sunday through Tuesday, but Wednesday night the 250-pound bruin's inquisitive nature led him straight into a live trap set earlier that day by Georgia Department of Natural Resources wildlife biologist Greg Waters. "Around 10:30 (p.m.), my daughter heard the clanging of the trap," Bozman said.
