Hunting accident near Milton

[Big Cliff]

Trying to get some details, apparently a 68 year old man was injured in a hunting accident NW of Milton this morning. Can anyone provide any information on who it was?

A 68-year-old man is in stable condition in hospital after being shot while hunting in Milton.

The shooting happened at 15 Side Road and Sixth Nassagaweya Line just before 8:30 a.m. on Thursday.

The man had been shot in the chest, Halton regional police said, but it’s not yet clear how or who shot him.

He was airlifted to a Hamilton hospital.

You guys are comedians, a guy is probably fighting for his life and it's funny?

[Big Cliff]

I don't think it's funny at all, I have a lot of friends in the Milton area about that age and I'm worried that it might be one of them. I still can't find out who it is that was shot though.

[Old Ironmaker]

I didn't mean you Cliff. It is scary when you hear about an accident around here, and there are accidents on Hwy. 6 steady and they are usually very bad and you know almost everyone you know uses it, including my wife. I hope the guy is OK.

My comment was serious. You know how many idiots hunt? How many shoot at movement?

[Fisherman]

Or simply shoot into the woods because there was a "noise" that looked like a turkey or deer.
