Rhegness told Asheville ‘s WLOS that she tried to get into her car to flee the bear, but didn’t make it. She said she ran up the walkway into her home with the animal still after her.
“I surely thought if I didn’t go inside, I would be certainly savaged, if not dead. As it was, you know, I was injured,” Rhegness, who was bloody and lacerated after the incident, told the TV station. “But it could’ve been much worse. I mean, if I had not gotten up and gotten in my house, I think it would’ve been much worse.”

It is that time of year. Maybe 3 or 4 years ago, I was on my way to Asheville driving west on I-40. Something caught my attention in my peripheral vision. I looked in my rearview mirror just in time to see a black bear coming from the divider right into westbound traffic. A car did hit it, but it seemed to roll with the punch. Looked pretty healthy as it scampered off into the woods. I think maybe that bear finally found the place that housed its attacker. It was a revenge attack. :-) |
