SHOOTING ACCIDENT.
Oamaru, Last Night. An extraordinary shooting accident occurred on Mr Meyers’ farm at Kauru Hill to-day. Meyers, accompanied by David Pollock, aged 20, a nxusterer, went into a paddock to destroy a cow with a marlin rifle. Meyers fired and the bullet entered the animal’s forehead, emerged at the eai’, ricocheted twenty yards and lodged in Pollock’s back near the spine. The doctors were unable to locate the bullet at the hospital. The sufferer’s condition is satisfactory.
