A rare polar bear that was spotted in a remote Icelandic village for the first time in eight years was shot dead by police after being considered a threat, authorities said. A homeowner barricaded herself in an upstairs room as the bear dug through her garbage outside. "It's not something we like to do," Westfjords Police Chief Helgi Jensson said.
