Hunter shot in the leg with muzzleloader

A downstate man was injured in a hunting accident Saturday evening in eastern Potter County. Game Commission officials declined to identify the victim, a 41-year-old male from Walnutport, citing privacy issues. He was shot in the leg by a flintlock muzzleloader carried by a hunting companion off of Pigeon Hill Road in West Branch Township.
