Nov 8, 2008
LIVINGSTON - A Putnam County man, who was hunting in the Columbia
County Town of Clermont on Sunday, was charged with reckless
endangerment in the second degree after he shot and hit a house while
hunting on Sunday.
A state trooper was dispatched to County Rt. 2 in the Town of
Clermont for a complaint of a house struck by a shotgun slug.
The officer patrolled the area and found Francis Salubro, 55, of
Putnam Valley still in his hunting spot from which he shot and hit the
neighboring house.
He claimed he could not see the house even though the trooper could
clearly see it.
Salubro's gun was confiscated and he was charged. He was issued an
appearance ticket to appear in Town of Clermont Court later this week..
