Arizona lad kills big bear with .22 rifle
A 14 year old Arizona boy, George Haught, killed an 800 pound silver tip bear with a single .22 caliber shot to save his life and that of his younger siblings on a Mogollon mountains trail. The hunt was conducted by a Southern California party of motion picture stars and businessmen who spent $25,000. The incident occurred as the bear attacked the group on their way home from school.
