The 550-pound bear living under a man’s Los Angeles home for 37 days has finally left the building — after being shot at with paintballs.

Altadena homeowner Ken Johnson has been living with the massive black bear under his home since Nov. 30 when it began squatting in his crawlspace. The “unbearable” roommate ruined Christmas for Johnson and had him on edge for weeks.

The bear eviction finally happened Tuesday after Johnson contacted “The Bear League” — a group from Lake Tahoe that specializes in bear removal emergencies.

The crew jumped into action, firing paintballs into the crawl space until the bruin had enough — retreating from its den.
