Hunter Trapped By Bears

A long ordeal for a hunter at a camp in the Dryden area.  Provincial Police received a report from a camp owner that a hunter had left for a tree stand around 2:30 Saturday afternoon and had not returned.  The camp owner checked on him and found 4-cubs and 3-adult bears around the stand not allowing him out of the tree.  Officers arrived and managed to remove the hunter from the tree without incident and without any shots being fired.  No injuries were reported.
