Texas Game Wardens are investigating two recent illegal deer killings in New Braunfels, with the latest incident involving a decapitated white-tailed buck. This particular deer was shot from the roadway with a broadhead-tipped arrow or crossbow bolt, left behind along with its meat, while the head was likely taken as a trophy.
The illegal hunts pose serious public safety risks, as shooting a weapon in residential areas is prohibited.
