This is from an unnamed source so it must be true:

'Woman Stops Grizzly Attack– With .25 Cal Pistol.

This is a story of self control and marksmanship with an itsy bitsy pistol by a woman against a fierce predator.

"While out hiking in Alberta Canada with my boyfriend we were surprised by a huge grizzly bear charging at us from out of nowhere. She must have been protecting her cubs because she was extremely aggressive.
If I had not had my little .25 Beretta with me I would not be here today!
Just one shot to my boyfriend’s knee cap was all it took!!!!!
The bear got him and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace."
