A tragic incident occurred in Virginia on December 9, when 58-year-old Lester C. Harvey was killed by a falling bear during a hunting trip in Lunenburg County. Harvey, a resident of Phenix, Virginia, was part of a hunting group tracking the bear. When the animal climbed a tree, one of the hunters shot it, causing the bear to plummet onto Harvey, who was standing about 10 feet from the tree. Despite immediate first aid provided by his hunting companions, Harvey was rushed to two hospitals. Unfortunately, he succumbed to his injuries on Friday. Harvey, a married father of five and grandfather of eight, was known as an avid outdoorsman and a self-employed contractor. Virginia’s Department of Wildlife Resources is investigating the accident. Harvey's death has left the local community in mourning, and his obituary has praised his love for the outdoors and his dedication to his family. Virginia Shocker: Indian-Origin Man Kills Wife, Googles ‘How Long Does It Take to Get Married After Spouse Dies’ After Murder; Arrested.
