2 Oregon hunters killed, 14-year-old foster son suspected

2 Oregon hunters killed, 14-year-old foster son suspected

Michael Piete and his uncle, Kenneth Gilliland, had hunted deer together and with other relatives for years from a remote log cabin in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon.

Their last hunting trip ended with them both being shot dead. Authorities said Piete's 14-year-old foster son shot them both, then ran off, but came back after accidentally shooting himself in the leg. Another of the hunting party held him at gunpoint and taped him to a chair until deputies arrived.
