Polish father shoots son because "I thought he was a boar
A 61-year old from Krotoszyn, western Poland, accidentally shot his 36-year old son on a hunting trip during the weekend.
The tragedy happened in a cornfield in Chachalnia, around 5km south of Krotoszyn. Local police have said that the death was unintentional.
The father added that he heard a rustling in the field very similar to that of a wild boar, and shot at the area where the sound was coming from.
An immediate rescue attempt by a medical team was unsuccessful, and the son died in situ. Police have said that the father was sober, and both had gun and hunting permits.
