A hunter in Pennsylvania has been charged with homicide after prosecutors said he walked away after shooting a teenager in a state park.
The teenager, 18-year-old Jason Kutt was sitting in his car with his girlfriend at Nockamixon State Park when he was shot in October. They were waiting to watch the sunset, Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub said at a press conference.
His girlfriend heard the shot and saw Kutt fall. When she looked down the road she saw a hunter in orange gear looking in their direction, but he fled the scene.
Eight weeks later, prosecutors identified Kenneth Troy Heller, 52, as the shooter. He was charged with criminal homicide, recklessly endangering another person, possession of an instrument of crime, possession of a brass knuckle dagger, and two hunting law violations - including failing to render aid to an injured person.

(11,949 posts)Brass knuckle dagger? This guy was no hunter. He was out to shoot. He shot at that car on purpose. You cant misidentify a car for a deer. Ive shot lots of deer. Its pretty fucking obvious its a deer. The woods dont change the way you see. Ive seen hogs(which I ate) bobcats, coons, possums, cows, horses, squirrels and birds out the ass. When a deer walks out out there is no confusion.
Sorry piece of shit.

Why would anyone go hunting with brass knuckles?
It sounds like premeditated murder to me.
