A
64-year-old hunter, Sergey Terekhov, was shot dead by his own dog after
venturing into the snow-covered countryside hunting in Russia.
The victim
was apparently shot in the torso while he was letting dogs out of the trunk of
a car while on a hunting trip with his brother on January 21, said the regional
branch of the Investigative Committee
According
to a statement obtained by Newsweek.com, the hunter died on his way
to the hospital.
The
statement reads, “The weapon rested on his knee, with the butt facing down and
the barrel pointing towards his stomach.
“The
trigger was presumably activated when the dogs jumped on the man after he
opened the trunk, the hunter died on the way to the hospital
“Everything
was in order. This was an unfortunate incident.”
Terekhov’s
social media page on the Russian platform Odnoklassniki features multiple
images of him roaming the wilderness with the dog that is suspected of
killing him.
