SCHODACK -- After a three-hour search, rescuers located an
injured bow hunter Sunday night. He is now recuperating from a head
laceration.
Police got a cellphone call that William H. McDonald had fallen
in the woods off rural Van Hoesen Road in South Schodack and had a
large laceration to his head. The caller was a fellow hunter who was
tending to McDonald's wound but police had difficulty locating the
pair in the dark, according to the Schodack Police Department.
McDonald was found at 9:47 p.m. and evacuated in a helicopter
that landed in a nearby cornfield. He was rushed to Albany Medical
Center Hospital, police said.
McDonald's condition on Monday was not available.
