WILMINGTON, Ohio — The Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife is currently investigating a potential state record buck harvested by Christopher J. Alexander, 28, of Wilmington, in Clinton County during archery season on Nov. 9.
The investigation was initiated following allegations that Alexander failed to obtain the legally required written permission before hunting on private property. Ohio wildlife officers, in the course of the ongoing inquiry, have confiscated the antlers, cape, and hunting equipment linked to the suspected unlawful taking of the deer, as reported by the ODNR.
