Wild bear attacks man in hot tub The 55-year-old man from Coquitlam, British Columbia, "felt a heavy blow to the back of his head which propelled him forward in the hot tub" on Saturday, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Staff Sergeant Steve LeClair said in a statement. The man then "turned around and found himself face to face with a black bear. He yelled at the bear and retreated inside," the statement added. Injured during the attack, the man, who was not identified, suffered lacerations to the back of his head and was taken to Whistler Health Care Center for treatment. Police responded to the incident, locating the bear about 100 meters away as it headed for a wooded area. "The bear was destroyed," the police statement said. According to local media, police shot and killed the bear. A necropsy will be performed on the bear "to determine the motivation for the attack," a police statement said.
