Game Warden Injured In Apparent Hunting Accident
Tuesday, December 31st, 2013
The Dallas Morning News reports that a Texas Parks & Wildlife game warden is in stable condition after he suffered a gunshot wound while off duty this past weekend. According to investigators, 31-year-old game warden Chris Fried was bow hunting in Delta County around 7 PM Sunday night in the Cooper Wildlife Management Area. Fried suffered a gunshot wound to his upper right arm and the bullet lodged into his chest. He was able to use his cell phone and call for help. Fried was eventually treated at the Hopkins County Memorial Hospital in Sulfur Springs and was last listed in stable condition. The 14,000+ acre hunting ground is currently open for archery-only whitetail deer hunting, and no firearms are allowed. The incident is being investigated by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Internal Affairs and game wardens assigned to the Department’s Criminal Investigation Division as well as the Delta County Sheriff’s Office and the Texas Rangers. A game warden forensics team was on the scene yesterday as part of the investigation.

Exposing the Big Game 
In an unpredictable turn of events, the shot triggers empathy for all animal victims and the game warder becomes vegan and an animal activist, using his political clout to end hunting in Texas. Mr. Fried reported that that is just the beginning.
This is New Year’s, not April Fool’s Day. Nice thought, though.

I am finding it difficult to drum up any sympathy for this individual. Here we have a game warden, out hunting with a bow (and probably dressed in camo) who gets shot when there are no firearms permitted….
Am I the only one who feels that it is somewhat justified inasmuch as he is using his advantage in his home turf, and yet he has no remorse for the animals he is supposed to be protecting? Methinks he should have stayed home on his day off…
LOL!
