A mother says her 10-year-old daughter was on her way to the school bus when she heard a gunshot from a deer hunter and saw a window on a parked truck shatter from the bullet.
Louise Luedtke says her daughter was within 6 feet of being struck by the bullet at their rural Wausau home in Tuesday's incident.
Luedtke says nobody was hurt but her daughter was shaken up. The mother says she wants an apology and payment for damage to the window.
Randy Falstad, a warden for the state Department of Natural Resources, says the hunter who fired the shot has not been found and it's possible the shooter did not know the bullet struck a vehicle.
The nine-day hunt ends Sunday.
