7:16 p.m. A Columbia Falls woman called to report that a man stopped by her house two nights in a row to let her know about a bear in the area. The woman told the stranger that there were a lot of bears in the area. Apparently, the man has not stopped by the woman’s neighbors to warn them of the nearby bruin, something she thinks is strange.
