Woman Can't Load Gun, So She Throws It At Bear Attacking Husband

Bear attacks man in Marinette County

TOWN OF SILVER CLIFF, Wis. - Gerre Ninnemann says he's lucky to be alive. He had to fight off a black bear Monday afternoon at his cabin in Silver Cliff in Marinette County.

So how did it all start?

Her name's Maddy

"We came out this patio door,” said Ninnemann.

Ninnemann – a retired financial planner who splits his time between his home in Green Bay and cabin in Silver Cliff – was getting ready to go for a walk with his pal Maddy – his eight-year-old yellow lab.

"And the bear was right here,” said Ninnemann pointing to the side of the cabin. “(Maddy) let out a ferocious bark and growl and started chasing after it."

But the young male black bear was soon chasing after Maddy.
