A Pennsylvania father is counting his lucky stars after he was bitten on the head by a bear he encountered in his garage last week, according to security camera video shared on social media.
FacebookOne video shows the bear walk along their grass, onto their porch and amble into the garage area near a car, out of the camera’s view.
Another clip shows the moment Swartz walks into the garage behind the car and his two cats suddenly run towards him. Moments later, he flies backward as the bear appears to lunge at him while fleeing the garage. He scrambles to get up and is seen holding his forehead and bolting back inside the home.NorthcentralPA.comThe 60-year-old explained that he had gone into the garage to turn off a hose, but it was dark so he couldn’t see the bear at first.
Swartz told the outlet he believed it was the squeak of turning the hose valve that startled the bear, and soon after he felt an impact and heard a growl.He said he felt the animal run past him before he darted back inside, where his stunned wife called 911. As they waited for an ambulance, they saw the bear — which he described as tall, skinny and weighing an estimated 250 pounds — near their RV. NBC News has reached out to the couple for further details.
Swartz suffered lacerations and puncture wounds to his head and legs, Pennsylvania State Police Lieutenant Adam Reed said Wednesday.
