Information is still being sorted out but unfortunately this fellow hunter has lost his hand. The surgeons could not save it.
Family in Idaho that know Shawn well say that he is a super friendly guy and an avid pheasant hunter. It appears that this was a very freak accident by someone who hunts and shoots a lot. He is still in the hospital in Spokane. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We're very glad that he is still with us and will perhaps hunt again some day.
