Early Monday morning, a woman in the Old Mammoth area heard her dogs barking outside of her home and soon discovered a roughly 70-pound, 17-month-old black bear fighting a dog.
Police said the bear bit and clawed the woman. This is when a man came outside and was "aggressively confronted by the bear," police said.
The bear suffered critical injuries and was later euthanized by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife due to its threat to the public.
"Incidents like this are extremely rare in Mammoth Lakes," Mammoth Lakes Police Chief Dan Casabian said in a statement. "Bears almost always avoid humans and will flee when confronted. This type of aggressive behavior is highly unusual."
Following this incident, officials are reminding people to give bears their space, back away slowly and never run from a bear.
