WICHITA, Kan. —

A major investigation into illegal deer hunting in Kansas has snared three more out-of-state hunters.

The U.S. attorney’s office says three customers of a hunting camp called Camp Lone Star pleaded guilty and were sentenced Monday on misdemeanor charges of interstate transportation of wildlife taken in violation of state law.

A judge sentenced Bart Stelly of Arnaudville, La..; Ryan Pinkston of Center, Texas; and Tim Metcalf of Lafayette, La., to probation. They must also pay fines and restitution.

The camp’s owner and his brother were sentenced last year to 41 and 27 months in prison, respectively.
