The Oregon State Police are on the lookout for a couple of poachers
that left a dead cow elk near Camp Sherman. Sgt. David Pond with the OSP
says they found out about the October 18th incident form other hunters
in the area. "Well, there's several subjects in the area hunting. And
they'd seen some elk go past them, towards another hunter and observed
that guy take a couple of short or heard him shoot. And so they decided
to walk over there and see if he had harvested anything, and they asked
them if they'd hit anything, and the guy said "No, we missed" and then
turned in a different direction and started walking away from where the
elk were."
Pond says the suspects are described as an adult male, about 25 years
old wearing a gray and blue plaid shirt and glasses. Also, about a 10
year old boy wearing an oversized orange vest that hung down below his
knees. Besides leaving a dead animal; they shot a female elk in an area
where only males can be hunted. If you have any information about these
suspects or this incident, contact OSP.
