Department of Wildlife and Parks officers requested charges following
a long investigation.
A Former Saline County Sheriff Deputy is facing criminal charges in
connection with alleged illegal hunting.
39-year-old Patrick Queen was arrested Tuesday morning. He could face
charges that include two counts of possession of a deer without a deer
tag and no fishing or hunting license in his possession.
Queen was a deputy with the Saline County Sheriff’s Office when the
alleged crimes happened.
Sheriff Glen Kochanowski says that Queen is no longer employed by the
department. The sheriff says that the Kansas Department of Wildlife and
Parks is handling the investigation.
Department of Wildlife and Parks officers requested charges against
Queen, who is a well-known avid bow hunter, following a long
investigation. More details about the investigation may be forthcoming.
