Hunter Dies in Crash of Helicopter

Victim of Bow, Arrow Accident Found

Dead after Helicopter Crash


DUGWAY PROVING GROUNDS (UPI) -- A soldier stationed at Dugway Proving Grounds suffered a severe wound while hunting with bow and arrow near here Thursday night and was pronounced dead after a helicopter crashed attempting to bring him out for treatment.

 

Name of the victim was witheld pending notification of next of kin.

 

The accident occurred in the vicinity of Simpson Mountain, at an elevation of 6,500 feet 18 miles south of here.

 

The vitim was one of four soldiers who where hunting in the area during the state sanctioned bow and arrow deer hunt. He apparently suffered the abdomen wound about 8 p.m. Thursday when an arrow fired by a fellow hunter missed and animal and struck him.

 

One of the group drove to Dugway in a jeep and alerted both a ground rescue party and a helicopter rescue team from Hill Air Force Base.

 

The H-21 helicopter, carryng a crew of three, reached Dugway at 11:45 p.m. and arrived at the accident scene about 1 a.m.

 

The helicopter, loaded with the victim and six others, attempted to return to Dugway but crashed because of power failure after making only about 20 feet of altitude. A doctor with the Hill rescue team pronounced the man dead after the crash.

 

The crash knocked the helicopter on its side and damaged the rotor blades. It was beleived none of the others were hurt in the crash. All peersons involved were brought from the scene by the ground rescue party.

 

The other members of the hunting party were not identified by Capt. William H. Kensley, information officer at Dugway. Hill Air Force Base said original crew members of the helicopter were Capt. Purcell A. Reary, 37, the pilot; 2nd Lt. Edward L. Radford, 22, co-pilot and Staff Sgt. Charles D. Soules, 29, crew chief.
