Swiss man attacked by bear at zoo

He didn’t die, but a mentally-handicapped 25-yr-old man came to close to it after he scaled the enclosure at a zoo surrounding the Bear Park in Bern, Switzerland, then fell down the 13 ft wall.

Inside the enclosure, two bears, one of which attacked the man, who sustained serious injuries while the bear was subsequently shot by police. Both the man and the bear are expected to live.
