Kirt Matthew Stubbins, 41, of Addison, Michigan, was killed on November 30, 2023, during a hunting excursion in Rollin Township. Described as a devoted father, a former dairy farmer who started his own lawn care business in 2019, and an active member of his church and the Kiwanis Club, Stubbins enjoyed hiking, camping and hunting. The Lenawee County Sheriff’s Office received a call around 9:40 a.m. about a shooting on Rome Road; what was first reported as a possible hunting accident was later classified as a homicide.

Investigators established that a 17-year-old who had been hunting with Stubbins was involved; an autopsy matched the bullet recovered from Stubbins to a .350 rifle the youth had been carrying. The teen was arrested in Jackson and charged as an adult with open murder and felony firearm. Did anyone in the area know Kirt or have information about that November hunting trip?
