Flying bear kills two Canadians in freak accident
OTTAWA: Two Canadians died instantly in a freak accident when a car hit a 440-pound (200-kg) black bear and sent the animal flying straight through the windshield of an oncoming vehicle, local media said on Wednesday.The bears body hit the 25-year-old driver and a 40-year-old man sitting behind her and then shot out of the back window. The bear also died. The accident happened on Monday night in a rural area about 25 miles (40 km) north of the federal capital Ottawa. We dont see (this) often, even if we live in the country. Lots of deer, but collisions with a bear and two people died? Thats really rare, local police spokesman Martin Fournel told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. Posted by: Steve White 2011-06-09 |
