Fatal hunting accident: shock in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania! Jäger dies from 200 meters from a ball!

Ruchow, Deutschland - In a tragic hunting accident in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, a 48-year-old hunter was fatally hit. The incident occurred during a joint hunt for Mustin in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district. According to the first reports, there was a shot from a high seat, 200 meters away, which hit the victim in the neck area, whereupon it died at the high seat.

The public prosecutor has already started the investigation and initially assumes an accident. A 50-year-old hunter, who was also present at the time of the shot, is examined for negligent killing. This hunter only gave up one shot at the time of the incident, as was already dark. A total of four hunters were present in the hunt, all of whom came from Lower Saxony. The use of night vision devices by the hunters is examined because it is unclear whether they played a role in the accident.

Investigations and further information

The police and an emergency doctor were alerted immediately after the shot, but could no longer help the injured hunter. The hunting company is currently being interrogated thoroughly to gain further knowledge. The autopsy of the killed hunter is intended to provide additional information on the type of firing injury. According to the Henning Wetzel hunting association, both an accident and an intentional act could be considered. In general, it should be noted that hunting is subject to strict regulations, but not all hunters always adhere to the regulations.

These incidents raise questions about security and the regulations in the hunting area. As the NDR news agency reported, the hunt on a forest edge near Ruchow, also in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district, was a formative backdrop for this fatal incident.

summarized this incident increases the discussion about the security measures during the hunting season and demands a precise review of the circumstances that led to the fatal shot. Further information is at np-coburg.de and ndr.de
