A man has been shot and killed while he was hunting by another hunter after allegedly being mistaken for a deer.

The incident occurred on Nov. 25 at approximately 7:16 p.m. when the Beltrami County Sheriff’s Office received a report from the FBI and the Red Lake Tribal Police in northern Minnesota that a hunting fatality had happened on -- or near to -- the Red Lake Reservation boundary and was being investigated.

During the investigation into the death, authorities discovered that 28-year-old Lucas Dudley of Bemidji, Minnesota, was reportedly deer hunting when he was shot by 33-year-old Rain Stately of Redby, Minnesota. The two were not hunting together.

This kind of thing needs to happen more often.

It's too bad they didn't both shoot each other.

I wonder if it ever happened to Native Americans because some of them wore antlers on their heads.

Sad deal. We’ve not had to respond to any hunting “accidents” so far this year...knocking on wood. There was an incident across the line in Arkansas where a young boy was killed while he and his brother were loading a deer.
