Woman Who Survived Bear Attack in Eastern PA Released From The Hospital

A woman who survived a bear attack outside her eastern Pennsylvania home has been released from the hospital and says she feels lucky to have survived. Fifty-year-old Melinda LeBarron told PennLive.com by phone Tuesday that she “shouldn’t even be here.” LeBarron was released last week from Geisinger Medical Center, where she was taken with head, hip and shoulder injuries after the Dec. 12 attack. Her dog was also attacked but is now fully recovered.
