He only complicated things by taking off,” said wildlife con- servation officer Jim Jolley, who is investigating the incident, as- sisted by the Luzerne County District Attorney's office. “I'm optimistic that either the person will come forward or we'll find him. Voytko could have died if he had been hunting alone.” Voytko, 27, of Moscow, was shot while hunting with his brother-in-law, A.J. Oliveri of Trucksville, and is listed in criti- cal condition in the intensive care unit of Geisinger Medical Center in Danville ith a wound to his left shoulder. According to the investigation, Voytko, wearing a blaze orange outfit, was sitting on the ground when he was shot. Jolley called the accident a “line of fire” accident, saying Voytko was wounded by another hunter shooting at a deer between them. “Voytko saw the buck after he had been shot,” Jolley said. “He was obscured from view because he was sitting on the ground. He was shot in the back. I'm 99 per- cent sure it was an accident.” John Carey of Trucksville heard the shots and the wounded hunter's screams, then ran to Audrey Simpson's house on Green hibit hunting is made on the rec- ommendation of each park's manager to the Bureau of State Parks based on safety, Barrett said. “There's no need to limit hunt- ing or the type of firearm or ammo here,” he said. “It's safe to hunt as long as hunters practice safe hunting techniques. There are risks involved in everything.” A controlled hunt in other sec- tions of the park to reduce the deer population is still under consideration by the bureau, he said. Green Road forms part of the park's northwestern border and is about a mile long, with only six or eight homes on its eastern end. Robert Duris has lived here for 17 years and has hunted deer with a shotgun and “ounce balls” since he was a kid. He lives about 300 yards away from the scene of the hunting accident. “If a hunter shoots a person wearing orange, there's something wrong with the hunter,” he said. Although the park is conven- ient and close to town, he believes too many hunters use it for the size of the area available. He hasn't had any close calls with stray bullets, but has seen “plenty of ignorant people.” “They'll park and block my driveway to go hunting,” he said. Wildlife Conservation Officer “Or else they'll come too close to the house and don’t care about it.” Possibly limiting hunters to using bows and arrows, muzzle loaders or shotguns in the park is a good idea, he said. “Iuse ashotgun and have never shot more than 50 to 75 yards,” he said. “More than that and I can't see what I'm shooting at. All people want to use now is the high-powered rifles, which I can’t see. Everything involves somerisk, but wearing blaze orange while you're out hunting helps reduce it? Ralph Kuniskas has lived on Green Road for about 20 years. “It's a decent area to hunt,” he in the park matters. “There aren't many houses on that end anyway,” he said. Mrs. Anthony Harchar and Mrs. E.E. Griffen alsodon’t worry about hunting accidents, although they have lived here a long time. “I thought I could expect to see hunters around when first moved here because it's a wooded area,” Mrs. Griffen said. The park isn’t hunted as heav- ily as it once was, Mrs. Harchar said. “It was a lot worse before, but, now there aren’t many deer left,” she added. “They should just let the deer live in peace in the park and not allow any hunting. If people keep on shooting them, there won't be any left for the park visitors to enjoy.” Recruiting fair for gridders at Sem High school football players in their junior and senior years, parents and coaches are invited to meet college coaches at the third annual Recruiting Fair, December 12, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Wyoming Seminary’s Student Center on North Maple Avenue in Kingston.
