Hiker shot, Valley of the Moon
« on: January 25, 2025, 07:27:33 AM »
 A group of hikers was attacked in the Valley of the Moon.  One was shot.  One was robbed.  Story attached below.

Leaves me with some questions.  How badly is the victim injured?  Why would smugglers shoot a hiker? (Hikers wouldn't be a threat and why attract attention.)  'Cartel' smugglers committing a personal robbery seems a little strange



hers's the article

My thoughts are hypothetical but I might guess they walked up onto a smuggling operation. Instead of getting out of there on the quick, some words were exchanged and the hikers got the short end of the stick. It's also likely those hikers wanted a portion of what those smugglers were peddling and that was not well received. That entire sector is not somewhere that's on the top 10 safest places to be in the county.
