GLEN MORRIS —(11-4-15) A 64-year-old Timmins man was airlifted to a local hospital after he was accidentally shot in the upper chest by another hunter Tuesday morning.
Brant County OPP said the man was deer hunting with a group of hunters and friends off East River Road in Brant County.
He was in serious condition. Shortly after 8 a.m., the group of six hunters was in a thick wooded area when one of the hunters saw a deer and shot at it. He didn't know the 65-year-old man was nearby, said Const. Ken Johnston of Brant County OPP.
A 69-year-old Brant County man was charged with careless use of a firearm.
Johnston said all the hunters wore proper safety vests and hats and had all the necessary paperwork for a weeklong shotgun season, which started Monday. It took emergency personnel more than 20 minutes to reach the injured man, who was some distance from the nearest road.
