VERNON, N.J. -- - A northwestern New Jersey man says he was mugged in his driveway by a sandwich-craving bear. Henry Rouwendal says he was packing his car last Friday when he was hit from behind and knocked to the ground. He says the culprit was a black bear who took his Italian sandwich. Rouwendal says he kicked the bear in the snout and throat. He says the bruin made off with the bread, salami and other meats but left behind the lettuce, onions and tomatoes. Vernon Township police say it's the first time a bear has attacked a person in the rural community in more than 25 years. The state Environmental Protection Department so far has classified it as an "incident" and not an attack.
Poster Comment: I'm sick and tired of these bears trying to take over, stealing our Italian sandwiches. Next time I see "Boo Boo," he's my hostage until Yogi returns all of the picnic baskets he's taken over the years. We need to start fighting back. On the brighter side, thank god the Environmental Protection Department didn't classify this as a full blown "attack."
