Summary: |
Officer Pete Andree was shot and killed by a man who was believed to be hunting squirrels out of season on his property on Upper Twin Creek. Officer Andree and another game protector had received a complaint of the hunting and went to investigate.
When they arrived at the location they located a car parked on the side of the road. Officer Andree hid in nearby bushes as the other officer continued driving around. A short time later Officer Andree observed a man return to the car, break down a shotgun, and place several squirrels in the trunk.
Officer Andree approached the suspect, informed him he was under arrest, and then fired two shots in the air to summon the other officer back to the scene. When the other officer arrived the suspect refused to be taken into custody by claiming he was on his own property and the officers did not have a warrant.
When the officers again told him he was under arrest the suspect opened fire with a .22 caliber pistol, striking both officers. The other officer drove Officer Andree to a nearby home where an ambulance was called. Officer Andree died a short time later.
The suspect was arrested later in the day and charged with murder.
Officer Andree had served with the agency for 13 years. He was survived by his wife and five children.
