An 81-year-old woman was attacked by a bear that killed one of her dogs when she let her pets outside Monday after taking the garbage out, police in NJ say.
The woman told police she had put out her garbage earlier in the day for its scheduled Tuesday evening pickup. It wasn't clear exactly what time she did that, but as she let her dogs out later, she saw two bears had torn open her garbage bags and were sitting on the street, eating and rummaging through the trash.
The dogs headed toward the bruins, the woman said, and the larger bear ran toward the woods. The other bear stayed behind and swatted at the spaniel, knocking it to the ground. The woman said she ran toward the bear, yelling, and tried to snatch her dog back from the bear -- but the bear bit her, scratched her, picked up the spaniel and ran to the woods, with the other dog in pursuit.
