Video of a Marion County deputy’s encounter with a black bear is quickly gaining traction on social media. Deputy John Remington says he came across the bear after responding to a call early Saturday morning in a southern part of the county. The bear walks right toward the deputy and ends up hovering a few feet away from him. “He got closer and I decided I should probably get back in the car,” Remington said. “It’s something that everybody goes, ‘Did you see that video on the Marion Sheriff's Office Facebook page?’ And it keeps them coming back for more,’” said Marion County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Lauren Lettelier.
