BEAVER DAM, Utah (AP) -- Authorities say a man who was bird hunting yesterday accidentally shot and killed himself.

Sheriff's deputies says 27-year-old Tate Anger of Fielding failed to return home yesterday from a hunting trip. So, his family went out searching for him.

Authorities say the man's truck was finally found on a hillside and his body was later found in a ravine.

Deputies believe Anger was climbing through a three-strand barb wire fence with a shotgun when it went off. Officers say it appears he was shot in the stomach and then later died.
