Two injured in bear attack
PRINCE GEORGE — Update: The BC Conservation Officer Service now confirm that a woman & her mother were attacked by a bear along a logging road 50 kilometres outside of town yesterday (June 16) afternoon at around 1:30 p.m.
“A report came in that two adult women were walking along a remote logging road and were walking their dogs and encountered a bear,” says COS Sgt. Steve Ackles.
“The dogs startled the bear and the bear did attack the dogs. The women suffered minor injuries and were hospitalized and they are okay and out of the hospital.”
He adds that their Predator Attack Team has determined that it was a defensive attack “where the dogs surprised the bear.”
