Sturgeon Falls man pleads guilty to unsafe hunting practices

3/11/2024

A Sturgeon Falls man faces charges following an incident that took place on Oct. 2.

Robidas also pled guilty to discharging a firearm across the travelled portion of a right-of-way for public vehicular travel and received a suspended sentence.

The court heard that on October 2, 2023, conservation officers received a complaint from a resident who witnessed Robidas – who was hunting grouse at the time – discharge a shotgun across a municipal road towards a neighbouring residence.

Pellets from the shot struck the siding of an occupied residence, causing damage.

Justice of the Peace Ruby Beck heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice, Sturgeon Falls, on Jan. 11.
