A hunting trip near Bentonville, Arkansas ended in a fatal accident in the autumn of 2016. On November 16, 54-year-old Jeffery Millstead of DeRidder, Louisiana was in the woods near Punkin Hollow and Miller Church roads with a hunting companion when he was struck by a bullet. The Benton County Sheriff’s Office reported the companion, Jimmy Paul Box, had been using a rifle to clear a path and that a round was accidentally discharged, fatally wounding Millstead.

Local investigators described the shooting as unintentional. No arrests were made and no charges were filed in connection with Millstead’s death. Does anyone have information about that area or that hunt that could shed light on what happened?
