A fourth hunter has now died since Saturday's firearms deer
season opener.
The Kanabec County Sheriff says the latest is a young hunter. He
was killed Monday after his gun accidentally went off. His name has
not been released.
The other victims include a 51-year-old Sartell man who
accidentally shot himself, and a man died of natural causes while
hunting in Beltrami County.
Also, a hunter in Hibbing died after his clothes started on fire,
while he was trying to light a heater.
