Bear Attacks Dog Walker And Bear, Unknown If It’s The Attacking One, Video Bombs Reporter’s Live Shot

A KTLA TV reporter had a rather dubious photo bomber at her live shot in the Southern California community of Monrovia, a female black bear that has been living in the neighborhood with her cub for some time. The community is known for bruin encounters in the past, and the report was taking place in the same area where a dog walker had an encounter with a bear recently so it’s unsure if this particular bear was invovled in that incident that left the person with a minor injury. But it was still quite a moment for Erin Myers, who along with her camera operator handled it like a pro.

Here’s KTLA with details:

“And yes, we all see that bear up to the right side,” KTLA’s Megan Telles said during the broadcast before tossing back to Myers. Audible gasps and startled “whoa!” reactions from newsroom staff could be heard in the background as the bear wandered into the live shot.

When the camera returned to Myers, the bear was seen walking near a large trap placed in the driveway of a home in the 700 block of Oakglade Drive.
