blaze orange

“The Vermont Warden Service encourages hunters and the general public to wear blaze orange while in the field during Vermont’s hunting seasons.”

Neither hunter was wearing blaze orange at the time of shooting, officials said.

Koren said they matched those worn by a person captured on security camera video wearing a blaze orange shirt and walking toward German’s home.

"Dudley was found not to be wearing typical blaze orange or other high-visibility clothing," the sheriff's office noted.

The two men were not hunting together and the victim was not wearing blaze orange, according to the Beltrami County Sheriff’s Office.
