Apparently Yogi was digging through the truck-sized "picnic basket" when he got stuck under the netting used to keep the garbage, and apparently bears now, inside, the AP reported.

When the driver pulled the net, the bear popped out of the truck and scampered away before the truck continued to the landfill, according to the AP.
