TOKYO — A bear injured nine people at highway rest stop in central Japan before being shot dead in a souvenir shop, a firefighter said Sunday.
The black bear seriously injured four men Saturday afternoon in Nyukawa, a mountain town west of Tokyo, said firefighter Tomohiko Akano.
The 4-foot bear first attacked people at a bus parking lot and then entered a lodge where it was shot dead by a hunter. No one suffered life-threatening injuries in the attack, which lasted about an hour, reports said.
