    Default Waycross boy killed in hunting accident

    A 12 year old was killed this past weekend. It appears that his rifle (30/30 per the article) discharged when he fell or as he was attempting to climb down from his stand.

    RIP Michael James Hurst Jr. and my condolences to his family.

    Yes, very sad. Prayers and condolences to his family. Tragic to lose a child.
