...just more right wing Rambo wannabe's blaming 'the enemy' when they shoot each other....wow!
PRESIDIO, Texas (AP) — Two hunters accused in a shooting on a remote Texas ranch near the Mexican border had told authorities that they were attacked by immigrants who had entered the country illegally.
Presidio County Sheriff Danny Dominguez told Odessa television KOSA (Hunting guides charged in connection to Presidio County ranch shooting ) that a grand jury indicted Michael Bryant and Walker Daugherty last week on charges of using deadly conduct by discharging firearms in the direction of others.
The charges stem from a Jan. 6 incident where police responding to call about a shooting on a ranch near Candelaria found Daugherty and another man in the hunting party, Edwin Roberts, with gunshot wounds. The men were part of a group of hunters and told authorities they were attacked by people who had illegally crossed the nearby border and tried to steal an RV some of the hunters were using.
An investigation found that Daugherty shot Roberts and Bryant shot Daugherty, Dominguez said.
The hunters' claim became fodder for a Facebook post by Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller, who wrote the attack was another reason why a wall must be built to secure the Texas border to halt "violent criminals and members of drug cartels coming in."
Hunters charged in Texas shooting had blamed immigrants
