Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A hunter took aim at a moose, but missed and accidentally hit a man sitting on the toilet in a nearby cabin, according to police.
The bullet whizzed past the animal, pierced the wooden wall behind it and struck the man in the stomach.
The victim, who is in his seventies, was flown by helicopter to hospital but his injury was not life-threatening, said the policeman who led the investigation, Anders Stroemsaether.
The hunter was taken in for questioning in Hvaler district, about 74 miles south-east of the capital, Oslo.
The moose escaped unscathed.
