Hunter shot to death in eastern WA

[bassquatch]

Wow that is crazy! Got out of the car and got shot>  Hope they find the shooter to get to the bottom of the story.

No kidding!!  Disgruntled land owner? Drug cartel types? His buddy? Some anti? That's pretty crazy stuff!

Prayers to the family and all involved

It's always disturbing to think about the potential for nut-jobs to be thrill-killing out in the woods.

According to the Wenatchee World, the sheriff is stating that it was an intentional homicide.

i live 15 minutes from chesaw and hunt up there all the time, my dads friend in the 70s found a grow operation and was kid napped by the growers he luckily escaped. there is people that live up there that live in shacks with no power or running water the come to town once a month or less you can smell them across a room, some of them im sure would kill someone if they stumbled across their grow operation. i know of atleast one shoot out up there between neighbors because they had an arguement. not sure what happened this time but nothing would suprise me at this point

One of the articles said the buddy wasn't considered a suspect.  Said he got out of the car in front of one house, but after being shot the buddy drove him to a different house for help.

It happened on Pontiac Ridge. That area is famous around here for things like that happening. This is the first time I've ever heard of a shooting
up there though. There is supposed to be Vietnam vets up there that are kind of a bubble off plum. I've been up there many times, but I never stop to do anything.

Got to: www.krem.com if you want to keep up on it.

I'm sure our Viet vet members appreciate the shout out. 

Let's not create the news before it hits the stand, folks.

Pontiac Ridge has a reputation in more areas than just NE WA. Regardless of the outcome, this event only add to that.

There is those couple sections pretty well marked private on both sides of the road, I usually do not even slow down while passing through.

I didn't say a vet did it. I live here and I'm just stating the facts.

OK.

I strongly agree to not spend too much time on that road. I've been told too many first hand stories of having run-ins with some aggressively strange individuals. I hope they get this solved quickly for the family.
