Two Batavia men cited for environmental conservation law violations

By Billie Owens

Two Batavia residents were issued tickets in Wyoming County during the opening weekend of gun season for deer hunting.

State Troopers from the Warsaw Station working alongside the Department of Environmental Conservation Police charged 13 people for a total of 20 violations of the Environmental Conservation Law.

They included Daryl S. Mays, who was located on Durfee Road in Middlebury and issued citations for illegal taking of an antlerless deer and failure to tag a deer. He will appear in the Middlebury Town Court.

Also, Rocky D. Gringer, 77, was located on West Middlebury Road and issued a citation for having a loaded firearm in a vehicle. He, too, will appear in the Middlebury Town Court.

People like these two jokers give real sportsmen a bad name. If you dont realize that you need to unload your firearm before entering a vehicle or that a tag needs to be filled out immediately upon harvesting a deer, maybe you should go take your hunter-ed class over.. or just stay out of the woods.
