ME - Man Wounded By Hunting Companion With Muzzleloader

ANSON, Maine -- The Maine Warden Service and the Somerset County District Attorney's Office will be investigating an incident in Anson in which one of three deer hunters armed with muzzle-loading rifles was shot in the abdomen.

Officials said Dwayne Pullen, 39, of North Anson, was transported to a Skowhegan hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening.

Warden service spokesman Mark Latti said a bullet fired by hunting companion Russell Booker, of Anson, passed through Pullen's abdomen without hitting any organs.
