In a tragic turn of events, the accused shooter, Kirk Edward Hazlett III, is the son of the victim, Kirk Edward Hazlett II, according to KARE. Witnesses included Hazlett II&#8217;s brother and another hunter present at the cabin. A criminal complaint revealed that on November 15 at their family hunting cabin in Hinckley, Minnesota, Hazlett II and his companions were alerted by the trail camera about an armed man on the property. The man was later identified as Hazlett III, who forcibly entered through the door and opened fire. One witness reported seeing Hazlett II shot multiple times in the upper body before his son delivered a final &#8220;execution-style&#8221; shot to his head as he lay on the ground. The other witnesses managed to persuade Hazlett III to let them leave in exchange for their phones and fled to a nearby property where they called 911 for help. Shortly after the shooting, police arrested Hazlett III at his home in Cambridge. The Pine County Sheriff\u2019s Office confirmed his arrest on November 16 but did not initially disclose details about the victim. Subsequent reports revealed that Kirk Edward Hazlett III has been charged with five felonies including second-degree murder and kidnapping related to shooting his father &#8220;execution style&#8221; at their hunting cabin in Hinckley MN; no clear motive has been provided beyond ongoing familial discord. Court documents indicate that tensions between father and son had escalated prior to this incident; just a month earlier, law enforcement had removed Hazlett III from the property due to trespassing during a family dispute. Witnesses noted that when he entered the cabin that day, he seemed intent on violence. Currently held at Pine County Jail, he faces multiple felony charges including second-degree murder and burglary following his court appearance on Monday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2372758,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kirk-Edward-Hazlett.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[45601,7204,45599,45602,45600],"class_list":["post-2372757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-cabin-incident","tag-crime","tag-fatal-shooting","tag-hunter-safety","tag-trail-cam"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kirk-Edward-Hazlett.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2372757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2372757"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2372757\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2372761,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2372757\/revisions\/2372761"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2372758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2372757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2372757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2372757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
