November 22, 2004

HAYWARD -- A dispute among deer hunters over a tree stand erupted yesterday into a shooting that left five people dead and three injured, officials said. The alleged gunman was arrested at the line between Rusk and Sawyer counties, according to Sawyer County sheriff's officials. The violence began shortly after a hunting party saw a hunter occupying its tree stand, Chief Deputy Tim Zeigle told KSTP-TV. A confrontation and shooting followed. One of the shooting victims radioed back to the deer shack for help, he said. When more hunters came to the scene, they also were shot, Zeigle said. Wisconsin's deer gun hunting season started Saturday.

I've heard of road rage...but deer stand rage?
