Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources says Knight accidentally shot a friend while hunting grouse. The wounds weren't life-threatening.
Knight told investigators he turned toward a flushed grouse and his finger slipped off his shotgun's safety and hit the trigger, accidentally firing the gun before he was ready to shoot.
Knight faces three citations at a cost of 165 dollars each. He told investigators he didn't think he needed a license to hunt on private property.

How would you like to set foot in this water.
Hundreds and hundreds of sharks invade the coast off of (La- Hoya) LaJolla California- one of the biggest tourist areas in Southern California.
It's very rare to hear about a sighting in this particular area- and these sharks are swimming right up to shore.
The reason for the mass gathering is still unknown.
The Leopard shark dines on a variety of fish and is considred relatively harmless- The shark can grow up to 7-feet long.
