    I did notice that and was thinking the same thing but I believe typical symptoms of propane asphyxiation are similar to carbon monoxide....starting out with nausea, vomiting and headache eventually leading to unconsciousness and death. Don't believe I've ever heard it made you go kill other hunters.

    I'd say there was some kind of argument that started it all but with only one witness I guess he's telling �� the truth.
    Translation? Wut?

    Terrible situation for everyone affected by it...My thoughts is it was a Vowell suicide that went awfully wrong.

    Very true and you wouldn’t think a duck blind would be weathertight enough to cause buildup of gas to cause a problem. Just a weird detail in the article I picked up on. It’s all a terrible event just as we all said when it happened months ago. And what went thru that mans mind to cause him to do it will never be understood. I will say though as far as we can tell by Crabtrees story is at least it wasn’t about shooting someone’s swing or anything duck related.
