LDWF agent SHOT: found DEAD

[PUREBAY2200]

On wwl news at noon they had a LDWF spokesman say that he was responding to a complaint of nite hunting. And his body was found by his vehicle with a single shotgun wound to the chest.

He went out at 1:30 according to the last radio contact.

My guess is he either confronted the illegal hunters and the situation went down hill from there. Sad that a husband, father & son lost his life Bc some idiots can't follow the rules and wanted to take matters into their own hands.
The LdWF spokesman said it's common practice for an agent to go out into the woods or water alone for these calls.

Anyone know how many agents are n LA.
Seems like we need more, I know it's not enough Bc I have a friend who works the ponchatrain basin and he has said b4 they are very understaffed.
