Friend shoots friend accidentally while hunting

A Wayne County man was shot by his friend in a hunting accident yesterday. It happened late last night in the town of Italy.

Police say Nicholas Pallo, 29 of Macedon, was shot by his friend while the two were fox hunting.

Pallo's friend shot him twice by accident with a 12-gauge shotgun after mistaking Pallo for an animal. Pallo was taken to Strong Hospital with injuries to the face and body.

Officials from the Department of Environmental Conservation are leading the investigation .
