An elderly male found unresponsive in a field along Wyandale Road in the Town of Concord Saturday afternoon was identified as Wladyslaw Wielgus, 72, of Concord.
Deputies responded to a field in the area of 11196 Wyandale Road Saturday after a friend found the victim. Emergency medical personnel responded to the scene and pronounced Wielgus dead.
The Sheriff’s office conducted an investigation and believes the victim had fallen out of a tree stand the previous day and attempted to make his way back to the road. The victim was found in the field with just jeans and a hooded sweatshirt; deputies discovered footwear along his trail and a crossbow in the vicinity of a tree stand.
The medical examiner determined the victim had a broken leg, jaw, and sternum and died as a result of the injuries.
