Two hunters were arrested on December 17 after a Department of Fish Wildlife warden caught them as they attempted to “spotlight” deer.
Ramsey Gene Horse, 29, and William Eugene Berreman, 26, were allegedly driving a Ford sedan with an artificial light in an attempt to spot and kill deer, an illegal action called spotlighting. They also had two loaded rifles in the back seat.
Horse and Berreman each face a total of four charges: Hunting with artificial light, Carrying a loaded firearm in a public place, License not in possession, and Taking a deer without a license. They were transported to the El Dorado County Jail and booked.
A deer wasn’t killed in the December 17 incident. Bail for each charge was $2,000.
