Pennsylvania Man Charged After Hunting Deer In Walmart Parking Lot
(article via Foxnews.com)
BLAIRSVILLE, Pa. – A Pennsylvania man allegedly went deer hunting inside a Walmart parking lot.
Forty-year-old Arcangelo Bianco Jr. is charged with reckless
endangerment for allegedly shooting across a highway to kill a 10-point
buck he spotted in a Walmart parking lot in November. The incident
occurred in Blairsville, Pa., which is 30 miles east of Pittsburgh.
Bianco faces a preliminary hearing May 1. His attorney didn't
immediately return a call for comment Wednesday on charges reported by
the Indiana Gazette.
The paper reports that on Nov. 26, at about 2 p.m., Bianco noticed
the deer and jumped out of his truck and "began firing multiple rounds
at the deer," citing court documents.
"The defendant pursued the deer through the parking lot and across
Old William Penn Highway, where he killed the deer. The defendant then
loaded the deer into his vehicle and took it to a meat processor for
butchering," Jack Lucas, a wildlife conservation officer, told the
paper.
Lucas says the buck is one of the nicest taken in the county in recent years.
