A 13-year-old boy out deer hunting with his father had his hat shot off his head but wasn't injured. Jeffrey Trepanier, 32, called the sheriff's office Monday to report someone shot the hat off his son's head while they hunted on public lands just north of Theresa.

"That was way too close for comfort,'' said Dodge County Sheriff's Deputy Chief Blaine Lauersdorf. "We searched the area and where unable to determine where the shot came from.''

Lauersdorf said the incident only reinforces that hunters must make sure of their target before pulling the trigger.

He cited a case last weekend in Waushara County in which a man inadvertently shot and killed his 18-year-old grandson, mistaking him for a deer.

Likely a coincidence, the name Trepanier being quite common. Still a nice catch.

Wasn’t a baseball cap or a watchcap. One of those big, floppy stocking caps.
