I did not find a dupe.

Idaho State Police are investigating after a Council rancher was shot and killed Sunday by deputies with the Adams County Sheriff's Office.

The incident began when a Subaru station wagon crashed into a bull on US 95 north of Council at about 6:45 p.m. Emergency responders and Adams County deputies responded and were working to extricate the two people inside the car. Adams County Sheriff Ryan Zollman said the bull, which was injured in the collision, started charging at emergency responders and other vehicles.

"The bull was very agitated and was aggressive to emergency services, as well as the other cars coming up and down the highway," he said.

Deputies were getting ready to put the animal down when the bull's owner, 62-year-old Jack Yantis, arrived on the scene with a rifle. Zollman said dispatchers had called Yantis after the crash, telling him that the bull that was hit appeared to be his, and was down on the highway near his house.

What happened next is still under investigation, but Zollman said there was an altercation and Yantis and both deputies all fired their weapons.

Yantis was fatally wounded and died at the scene. One of the deputies suffered a minor injury.

I came across a black cow on a back road one night. Thing was hard to see! This was outside the cattle guard areas too so I wasn't expecting it.

Usually, it's the 'World Champion Prize Breeding-Stock Bulls' that get hit. At least they become one when they get hit.

Why u need facts brah?  It's obvious the evil JBTs set up the crash so they could kill the bull AND the owner in one fell swoop.

I bet the deputies had cargo pockets.

had almost the exact same thing happen to me years ago....



cow got hit by small car, occupants all fubar, cow with broken leg...farmer showed up with rifle saying HE was going to put it down, cars and bystanders around all over the place...i told him no

i would put it down if thats what he wanted...a .22 in the ear was much safer than him racking a 30-06 off and god knows where the ricochet would go




he got all pissed and butthurt started mouthing off etc etc....told him to get back in his truck and he could haul the cow off after i was done

It says there was an altercation which kinda rules out that if by that you're saying he showed up with a gun and the deputies thought he was there for nefarious purposes and just shot him.  Sounds like there was an argument.  Who knows.  We need more facts.

I don't think it's much more complicated than that. Well, other than the fact it was a bull but I still find myself in agreement with your assessment.

Altercations are hard to prove when one guy is dead.. unless there is video tape.

If a bull is pissed off then the only way you can stop him is with a gun. I tried to stop one with a Jeep one time and I'm not sure if he even acknowledged my presence.

Well we have the auto victims who were present, we have EMS that was present, and we know the deputies were aware the bull owner was coming because dispatch called him.  Given all of that, the more likely scenario is that an argument took place.

I hit one in Georgia.  I never saw it until the very last second.  I almost head-on'd it.  I made a quick swerve and the ass of the cow took off the mirror and wrinkled every panel on the drivers side.  Luckily it was a rental.  

 



A cow causes a lot of damage and can easily kill you.

Local cops here carry a 10/22 in the trunk.

Spoke to the chief about it when one of his guys took a knee in my company's parking lot with said 10/22 to dispatch a skunk.  Not exactly what you expect to see when you leave work.

There was a story a few years back of a cop who hit a killed a kid (cop was on a motorcycle, I think).  It was (obviously) a complete accident.

Dad showed up and attacked the cop, the cop ended up shooting and killing him.

Tragic story, nobody went home a winner there.


edit: The little girl was not killed, she was fucked up pretty bad, but lived.

The area where the bull was hit is open range, Zollman said, and darkness had fallen by the time the Subaru crashed into the black bull in the roadway.

omg, if a guy says he has a .22 he has a .22. That is not suspicious.



I got a .22 right here next to me. It was stuffed in my belt this afternoon. Am I suspicious?
