Hunter's Bullet Grazes 2 Kids at Michigan Day Care

BENTON TOWNSHIP, Mich.  —  Authorities in Wisconsin say a hunter's stray bullet has grazed two young boys at a day care near Cheboygan.

The Cheboygan County sheriff's department says a 43-year-old woman fired her rifle at a deer on Thursday but the bullet penetrated a wall and grazed the boys — ages 3 and 5 — inside Angie's Country Kids Day Care in Benton Township.

The Petoskey-News Review reports they were released from a hospital after treatment.

Authorities say the woman was hunting about 400 yards away, and may not have realized there was a day care in the area.

The county prosecutor's office is expected to review the case.

*sigh* Why don't people get to know the area they are hunting in? I know it's mentioned ad nauseum in the hunter safety classes up here.

Glad none of the kids were seriously hurt.

Wonder if she was an out-of-stater?

In before the women haters make a big deal out of the fact the hunter had ovaries.

Edit: Guess not.

Where did this happen? Article talks about places in Michigan, but says Wisconsin authorities

And this is why you can only hunt with shotguns in some places. Retards that can't be trusted with real weapons get them taken away from everyone.

I can't find Angie's Country Kids Day Care in the phone book.  A lot of people are reporting this story, but is there any truth to it?

I looked this story up and can not find any day care with this name. I smell B.S. Back drop is 101 and this is a good reminder to all hunting and target shooters.
