TAMA, Iowa -- A Tama man was injured when hunting dogs stepped on his
gun.

Officials with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources said James
Harris, 37, was pheasant hunting with a group about three miles north
of Grinnell when the accident happened.

Officials said the group had shot a bird and when Harris went to
retrieve it, he put his gun on the ground and crossed a fence. As he
crossed the fence, hunting dogs stepped on his gun causing it to fire.


Harris was shot in the lower left leg.

He was treated at Grinnell Medical Center and later transferred by
helicopter to university Hospitals in Iowa City. His condition has not
been released.

The investigation is continuing.
