Bear attacks two children in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Two children were attacked by a bear in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, while playing in their driveway. The Pennsylvania Game Commission is investigating the incident, and the children were treated for non-life threatening injuries at a nearby hospital. Black bears are common in Pennsylvania, but attacks are rare. The commission has set two bear traps in the area and will euthanize the bear if it is caught and identified as the one involved in the attack. The commission advises people to keep their distance from bears and avoid feeding them.
