A Kenora man has been fiend two-thousand-dollars for shooting a deer from a roadway.
Conservation officers with the Ministry of Natural Resources came across Steven Burke with an antler-less deer in the back of his truck, and saw him again returning to the site where the deer was apparently killed.
Officers spoke to Burke, and learned that he had shot the deer on the side of the road and was returning to the site to cover his tracks.
The MNR would like to remind the public that it's illegal to discharge a firearm from, down or across a roadway.
