    Don't say anything about shooting himself. It is unclear if others are involved. Unless I am reading from another website

    Don't read stuff. It's cancer. Nz herald isn't quite as bad. Says there he shot himself.

    Stuff at the best of times is crap, their reporters shouldn't be allowed to issue articles on the majority of subjects. Have little knowledge if any on the most subjects and their reporting is rubbish. Was having a great day until this appeared.

    I said to my wife a few days ago that given the weather and the like there would be 2 people shot this long weekend. So far I'm 50% right

    Understatement of the year. Slow, inaccurate, poorly edited and spell checked and almost never fact checked. Lets face it I think the times they get shit right is probably more to do with luck than good reporting.

    (I mean lets face it 90% of the articles on stuff would be in the fiction section in the library meaning its more like a digital "Womens day" for the panic ridden...)

    You should see the crazies coming out of the woodwork in the comments section on the herald FB page. "Good job", " now you know how it feels", "murderers" etc.

    Only speculation but I heard through a mutual acquaintance he slung a loaded rifle over his shoulder muzzle down, went in lower thigh and out just under the knee
