Two 18-year-olds wanted to go crow hunting in Dötlingen in the German state of Lower Saxony on Saturday morning. One of the boys fell into his companion’s field of fire and was mortally wounded.
The 18-year-old hunted the birds with a peer on Saturday morning, police said. Both had a hunting license.

The police have launched an investigation and seized the weapons used. A police spokesperson said the gunman fired only one shot. It is not clear whether the victim was hit by just one or more hail. An autopsy should prove this. According to the current status, everything points to a tragic hunting accident.
When hunting crows, the hunters hide behind camouflage screens. They use decoys and the behavior of the crows to congregate in large numbers at the feeding stations. It is still unclear how the 18-year-old ended up in the field of fire of his hunting companion.
