CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - State wildlife officials have cited more than two dozen hunters for violations during West Virginia's spring turkey season. Most of the 27 hunters were cited for baiting. State law prohibits using bait to hunt or trap a turkey.

The Division of Natural Resources said Wednesday that other violations included hunting out of season, shooting from a vehicle and illegal possession of wildlife.

Citations were issued in 16 counties.

West Virginia's spring turkey season began April 28 and continues through May 24 in all counties.
