Forestburgh, N.Y. (AP) – A Connecticut man is recovering from
shotgun wounds sustained in a hunting mishap in southern New
York.
Authorities say Henry Gasiorowski, of Greenwich, Conn., was hit
in the arm and back by shotgun pellets in the Friday morning
accident at a hunting club in Forestburgh.
The Sullivan County Sheriff’s office says the 60-year-old was
sitting behind a decoy turkey making turkey calls when a hunting
companion from Greenwich mistakenly opened fire.
Gasiorowski was hospitalized, but his injuries were not
life-threatening. Police are investigating.
