Authorities also look at 2001 hunter slaying (AP) - Clark County's sheriff says his detectives "jumped on it right away" when trying to determine any possible link between the fatal Sawyer County shootings and the 2001 death of a hunter near Neillsville, Wisconsin.
Sheriff Louis Rosandich says the homicide of Jim Southworth in November of 2001 has not been forgotten by area citizens or anyone else. Southworth was hunting alone on family land when he was shot twice in the back.
Witnesses reported a late 1980s-model Nissan or Chevy truck near the scene of the shooting. Three occupants in the truck were described as Asian. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the Sawyer County shooting suspect, Chai Vang, owned a 1987 Nissan pickup.
Authorities have said Vang was hunting with two other people on Sunday before he wandered onto private property west of Exeland. The other two people have not been found.
Vang is accused of fatally shooting six hunters and wounding two others.

What do you mean try? It doesn't even sound like they're having to work to hard to link this murderer to another hunter killing.

Just wait until they figure out that one FReeper has already run a Google search to show that one of the "hunters" killed was a convicted bank robber.
There was more than mere hunting going on over there...
That link has been disproven. The man killed and the bank robber were of very different ages.
bttt
It would be significant if he is linked to this crime. This victim was shot in the back, which means it was not self-defense. He is now alleging that victim shot first.
Thanks. Didn't know that.
We have a match.
A man who gets his jollies by hunting hunters.Some sort of reality game going on in his head.
I don't think he will be doing it anymore.
Deer hunt has deadliest start in years
By Ed Hoskins of the Tribune Staff
The opening days of Wisconsin's gun-deer hunt season were the worst for hunting accidents in more than a decade, the state Department of Natural Resources said Monday.
At least four hunters were killed in accidental shootings - three of them in western Wisconsin - and two men died in other hunting-related incidents. It was the most deaths for the season since 1988.
....snip....
In Adams County, Wayne Blodgett, 76, of Hartford, was killed Saturday by a stray bullet, authorities said.
Tellya what. Give me a rifle, and give him a 20-second head start.
BTTT
And....a vehicle with THREE Hmongs was seen in the area around the time of the murder...
If Proven to be true...
That makes this a conspiracy.....
Which fits in with the Hmong gang activity running from Minneapolis St. Paul ..through EauClaire,
Wausau, to Green Bay, and through the Fox River Valley.
imo
Premeditation is a sure thing. First degree munder. Hang all three of em!
Conspiracy and premeditation. Maybe they just wanted to run everyone off of "their" hunting grounds. Maybe it was racially motivated. Could be both.
Is it even possible for Hmong's to commit "hate crimes"? That might not be politically correct!
Wow. Wow.
