The North Adams police department in Massachussetts has an important message for you.

According to the department, some guy, described as “hatchet man,” did something very dumb on Monday night.

“Chasing bears through the woods drunk with a dull hatchet is strongly not advised,” the department posted on Facebook.

If you see a bear, just call them instead.

“We certainly don’t need anyone going all Davy Crockett chasing it through the woods drunk with a dull hatchet. It is just a bad idea and not going to end well.”
