Shot ricochet off duck blamed for hunter losing an eyeWARWICK SMITH/FAIRFAX NZ Jim Morton lost his left eye, on the right of this picture, in a duck hunting incident. Morton was in a mai mai 47 metres in front and to the right of the hunter's. Two paradise ducks lifted off the pond between the mai mai and the hunter fired two shots, killing both ducks. That was not the case when I inspected the mai mai." The Dyer report had not been tested to check if the physics behind the duck ricochet theory were correct.
