But not how you think.......Be careful out there. #SuperflyA Virginia father of five has died after being struck by a bear falling from a tree Monday morning in Lunenburg County, according to the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (VDWR). An investigation by VDWR, which was notified of the incident around 9:50 a.m., suggests that a group of hunters chased a bear into a tree. Then as the group retreated from the bottom of the tree, one of the hunters shot the bear, according to officials. As the animal fell, it hit 58-year-old Lester C. Harvey Jr., of Phenix, Virginia, who was standing about 10 feet from the bottom of the tree. One of the hunters provided first aid until local emergency crews arrived on scene. Officials said Harvey, who had been in serious but stable condition after being transported from VCU South Hill to VCU Medical Center in Richmond, succumbed to his injuries on Friday, Dec. 13.

Lunenburg County is not too far from me.
Sorry to hear of his unfortunate circumstance.
I do know the bear population has grown quite a bit in this area.

Will the shooter be charged with negligent homicide?

Who thought it would be a good idea to either:
a: Stand underneath a bear while someone tried to shoot it out of a tree.
2. Shoot a bear out of a tree while someone was standing beneath it.

That sucks. The bear world is celebrating, though.

Looks like he was going for one of his hounds trying to hold it back. Not sure if the shooter saw what was happening or not. Hell of a way to go.
