In a rare kind of attack, a bear killed a man in Crystal, New Mexico, on Thursday, local police said.
The police department for the Navajo Nation said officers within its Window Rock district received a call at about 1pm that a bear had attacked a man.
Authorities shot the bear, and the creature fled into woods near the scene of the attack. They said they ultimately found the bear and “neutralized” the animal.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the victim’s family at this time,” the Navajo police department said in a Facebook post.
The Native American reservation’s police department said its criminal investigations department as well as its fish and wildlife department also responded to the scene of the fatal attack.
