One hunter was flown to an Eau Claire hospital after being shot in the leg. The Barron County Sheriff's Department says around 10:00 Sunday morning a 21-year-old hunter from Hubertus, WI was shot in the right thigh while hunting in a cornfield near Barron.
It says he was between two corn fields when he was hit. Deputies say they believe the victim was shot by one of two hunters in a neighboring property who were shooting at a deer running through a pasture.
There is no word on the hunters condition and the case is being investigated by the Barron County Sheriff's Department along with the DNR.
