| Flying bear kills two Canadians in freak accident |
| 2011-06-09 |
| 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 bear’s 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 don’t see (this) often, even if we live in the country. Lots of deer, but collisions with a bear and two people died? That’s really rare,” local police spokesman Martin Fournel told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. |
