Atsushi Aoki, 63, was fishing in a mountain creek when the 6-foot-3 Asian black bear attacked him. He was bitten and scratched repeatedly, including on his head, according to the Yahoo News report.
The fisherman then got in his car and drove to a hospital in Gunma, northwest of Tokyo, where he was treated for injuries to his leg, arm and head, according to Japan Today.
