The hunter was found dead in a small town in Dordogne. If at first the circumstances of his death were unclear, it would seem that the possibility of an accident was favored.

The events took place in Coly-Saint-Amand, in Dordogne, on Sunday November 3. The 49-year-old man was found dead from a gunshot wound to the abdomen mid-morning. The firefighters and SAMU quickly intervened but the man had already died, according to information from Bleu Périgord.

The man was a hunter and was taking part in a hunt with one of the hunting companies when his colleagues heard a shot.

Death by accident?

In an article from South Westthe first analyzes “do not suggest any cause other than an accident and confirm ballistic trauma.” According to the Périgueux public prosecutor's office, “there would a priori have been no intervention by a third party.” Questioned Le Figarothe president of the hunting company Michel Traléglise, “It can only be an accident.”

According to testimonies collected by our colleagues, the man, his first name Franck, was a farmer, a “guy who’s been hunting forever.” “No one knows what happened” reacted the mayor of the small town the same day of the events, Vincent Geoffroid, “a friend” of the hunter.
