Minnesota has no documented fatal black bear attacks on people in the sources I found, and state reporting on a recent bear incident said there had been no fatalities from recorded serious bear attacks since 1987.

A few important notes:

  • Black bear attacks on humans are rare overall.
  • In Minnesota, the better-known bear incidents in recent years have involved injuries, not deaths.
  • There are bears that die in Minnesota from other causes, like vehicle collisions, but that is different from deaths caused by black bears attacking people.

If you meant “how many people have black bears killed in Minnesota,” the answer is zero documented human fatalities in the available reporting.
