Woman injured by black bear near Nisswa, Minnesota

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources announced in a news release this weekend that a woman was treated and released from the hospital after being injured by a black bear near Nisswa early Friday morning.
The woman was staying at a cabin near Gull Lake and let her dog outside shortly after midnight. She went into the yard to check on the dog and the bear swiped at her, striking her in several places. The bear left the immediate area after the incident. The DNR release said that woman’s injuries were serious but not life-threatening.
