Armed Citizen: Woman Fells Charging Bear

Brandy Taylor and her husband were watching a movie at home in St. Regis, Mont. when they heard a suspicious noise near their garbage. Taylor’s husband went outside to investigate and came upon a black bear. The bear charged him and then turned its attention to Taylor, who was near an open window. Taylor responded by retrieving a .22-250 rifle and felling the bear with one shot. (The Missoulian, Missoula, Mont. 05/21/15)
