Man, Woman Killed After Flying Black Bear Crashes Through Their Vehicle

A black bear struck by a Pontiac on a Canadian highway was propelled through the windshield of an oncoming SUV, killing two people in the vehicle, the Ottawa Citizen reported Tuesday. The 440lb (200kg) bear was thrown with such force it flew right through the Nissan Pathfinder, smashing out of the back window. Killed were a 25-year-old woman who was driving, and a 40-year-old man who was in the seat behind her, while the woman’s 28-year-old boyfriend -- who was riding in the front passenger seat -- survived, as did the two men who were in the Pontiac Sunfire that originally struck the bear.
