HUNTER FOUND DEAD
Kila - Searchers of the Flathead Search and Rescue Assn. last night found Wesley Drollinger, 42, of 5 Meridian Rd., dead in the woods near Welcome Springs on the Flathead Mine Road.
Drollinger was reported missing by his family about 7 p.m. Tuesday when he failed to return home from a hunting trip. About 40 members of the association were formed and an intense hunt made in the area of the springs. Drollinger was found about 10:15 p.m., dead in the woods, apparently a victim of his own weapon.
Flathead County Deputy Coroner Charles Rhodes said an autopsy is to be performed. There was little doubt in Rhodes' mind the death was accidental. He said Drollinger had apparently dropped his rifle and when he went to retrieve it the trigger caught on a twig and discharged. The bullet struck him in the abdomen.
According to Randy, his father, Wesley and brother, Wade were killed in separate hunting accidents only two weeks apart. Wesley's death year of 1973 is per Randy.
