A woman was severely injured when she was attacked by a black bear while walking in woods in northeast Minnesota, officials said.
Mary Lou Munn, 50, managed to call authorities but was found lying in her front yard with several severe cuts to her leg, back, stomach and shoulders, authorities in Carlton said.
They said Munn told them that she fought the bear with a stick and her fists and that her dog tried to help, but that the bear continued attacking her.
Munn was reported in good condition Saturday after surgery at St. Mary’s Hospital in Duluth.
