I couldn't help but post this article up. As many threads as we have had discussing the best possible handgun/cartridge combination to be carrying when you are attacked by marauding bears, the one guy I've read about in recent memory to actually face the above situation turned out to be just some dude with a Hi-point.
Thankfully everyone made it through unscathed, except for the bear, who was able to dodge the first 6 shots lobbed out of the Hi-point, but apparently got tagged by the 7th.
