Senior found wounded near site of deer shooting

It is both hunting season and rutting season. Also, the deer are moving into their winter yards, where they congregate in the cold. SLow down on the roads, people!

I often complain about the noise of the OPP guns at the recertification range 500m across the wetlands of our backyard. This is a good reason to know they are certified.

They must hit their target, or there are serious consequences.

SIU investigating as senior found with possible gunshot wound after nearby police shoot injured deer

As rush hour was dying down Monday morning, police in Thornhill, north of Toronto, received a report of a “seriously injured deer” on the side of a road. Officers cordoned off a nearby intersection and then, using an undisclosed number of shots fired from an undisclosed firearm, they “put down” the animal.“Shortly after that, a 78-year-old man was found injured nearby,” read a Monday statement by the Special Investigations Unit, which is now leading a probe into the shooting.
Deer put out of its misery.
