Tyson Beckford-Hearing Grizzly Grotto Jumper Set Free

"Do it."

The mentally unhinged man who jumped into the grizzly grotto at the SF Zoo on September 26 has been acquitted by a jury. Accused of "trespassing and disturbing dangerous animals," Kenneth Herron, 21, crept into the into the dwelling of" two 6-year-old, 500-pound female grizzlies at closing time," reports SF Chronicle.

Herron told police that he heard the voice of male model Tyson Beckford in his head, telling him to "save a girl in distress." Which: seems completely reasonable to us. Anyway, Herron didn't injury any of the bears. In fact, one of the grizzlies sniffed his shoe, but ran off after SF Zoo employees fired warning shots into the air.

SF Chronicle goes on to report that "the jury concluded that there was not enough evidence to show that Herron 'willingly went into the bear enclosure,' given his mental state." Herron, however, is "still sought on a misdemeanor warrant out of Union City involving a domestic violence incident."
