Default Grizzly Attack In Yellowstone

I just glanced over the news yesterday but I did see something about another Grizzly attack in Yellowstone. Does anyone know anything further about it? I have been watching to see what's going on with bear attacks but I missed this story.

This is the last attach that I heard of. A hunter had the misfortune of getting to close to where a bear had an elk cached.

I live near Yellowstone, and there has been nothing about a new attack in our local news. I also find nothing on the park's website, or an online Yellowstone forum that I frequent. I wonder if you saw something about one of the earlier attacks. There was a minor attack in the Tetons last week, an elk hunter who sustained a couple of bites to his leg when he surprised a grizzly at close range near a carcass. I don't think there has been any grizzly related incident in the region since then.

eta: this is the same incident that Indiana linked to above the same time I was typing.

Thanks guys! That's the one. I went back to try to find it where it was and it had already been buried by everything else. I'm glad he wasn't hurt badly. I bet he was plenty scared though.
