Flying bear kills two Canadians in freak accident

OTTAWA (Reuters) – Two Canadians died instantly in a freak accident when a car hit a 440-pound (200-kg) black bear and sent the animal flying straight through the windshield of an oncoming vehicle, local media said Wednesday.

The bear's body hit the 25-year-old driver and a 40-year-old man sitting behind her and then shot out of the back window. The bear also died.

The accident happened Monday night in a rural area about 25 miles north of the federal capital Ottawa.

While not necessarily a 'common' occurrence, this is certainly not a freak accident.

When an animal (usually a moose or a deer) is hit by a car, it's legs are taken out and it is usually thrust into the driver's compartment.

In the US, we have the right to bear arms...but we can't fire off a whole bear at somebody.
