Ex-Marine Kills Bear With Log at Low Gap Camp Grounds in Georgia

Today's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ran a version of this Cox News Service report. Chris Everhart, on a weekend camping trip with his three young sons, killed a marauding bear with a well-placed throw of a piece of firewood to the bear's head. Thus was tragedy averted.
The man was given a ticket for failing to secure his camp site, said Ken Riddleberger, a region supervisor for game management with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.

The tragedy averted being the local DNR having to issue Everhart a citation posthumously.
