The best thing that homeowners in that area can do is to remove the attractants that

are drawing the bear in to their yards and to haze the bear when it's spotted. Here's info on

how to scare that bear: http://myfwc.com/wildlifehabitats/managed/bear/living/scare/

We also have quite a bit of information and tips about living with bears: http://

The Newscaster has heard reports of beehives and bird feeders being destroyed by

at least one of the bears.

Hit and run crash from Marion County to Inglis

In a two vehicle traffic crash that occurred at 3:35 pm, May 11, on State Rd. 200

at SW 86 Circle in Marion County, no injuries were reported.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol press release, both vehicles were travel-

ing south on SR-200 in Marion County in the far right lane. Roger Buening, 52, Dunnellon,

was driving a 2006 Chevrolet Avalon (vehicle #2), which was in front of a 2003 GMC Si-

erra (vehicle #1). The Avalon had stopped behind other traffic at the traffic light on SR-200.

According to Mr. Pickett, the driver of the GMC Sierra, he was talking on the phone and

accidentally dropped it onto the floor and took his eyes off the road, causing the GMC to

collide its front into the rear of the Chevy Avalon.
