A woman who stepped outside her condominium complex to let her dog out Wednesday night was attacked by a momma bear after the dog chased a cub up a tree.
Sarah Dietl, 43, sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries in what was an extremely rare bear attack in Vermont, according to the Brattleboro Reformer and VTDigger. The state had seen only four others in its history before this one, which was the second this year.
