Man's Elbow, Mistaken for Squirrel, Shot

GOLDEN TOWNSHIP, Michigan, Feb. 14, 2006

(AP) A man was shot and injured when his hunting partner mistook his elbow for a squirrel, authorities said.

Michigan State Police said George Arthur Sikkenga, 64, of Muskegon, Michigan was wounded Sunday morning in Golden Township, in Michigan's west-central Lower Peninsula.

Sikkenga was wearing camouflage clothing except for an orange hat, which he had covered with a hood after sitting down behind a tree, The Muskegon Chronicle reported.

His clothed elbow was all of him that was visible when his friend, Gregory Scott Wood approached from behind the tree and fired his weapon, which the Ludington Daily News described as a .17-caliber rifle.

Sikkenga was transported to a local hospital, where he was treated and released.

Police were investigating the shooting.

A baldheaded squirrel? A.17 cal rifle? What planet is this? Almost as bad as mistaking a lawyer for a quail.

Me? Laugh at your expense?! Why Mr. Rochip, I am surprised at you! To think I would make fun of you for my personal enjoyment!

lokoike smugly stated, all the while thinking to himself "I'll get you, my pretty! Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!"

"I'll get you, my pretty!"
