Man dies from Fallow buck injuries
A 50-year-old Sunset area man died from injuries believed to have been inflicted by a buck fallow deer inside a pen at his property.
Montague County Chief Deputy Chris Hughes said a 911 call came in about 11 a.m. on March 12 for an injured man, Charles Sean Talley, at 951 Denver Road.
His father, Charles Talley Sr., made the emergency call and contacted the family after he saw his son lying inside the pen while he was driving by.
The Sunset Volunteer Fire Department and City of Bowie Ambulance responded to the scene, along with Deputy Phillip Greneade.
Hughes said when the fire department arrived they found the injured man in a high fenced area where several deer were located. The man appeared to have several punctures in his abdomen believed to have been from the antlers of a deer.

The life-saving efforts of a Nocona man were recognized by the Nocona City Council with a proclamation presented during the March 11 meeting.
Mayor Robert Fenoglio read the proclamation for “Donovan Houston Day,” honoring his quick actions in helping save Sherry Morgan, a neighbor who was being attacked by a pack of large dogs on Feb. 8 outside her home on Fannin Street.
The police report indicates the 78-year-old Morgan was attacked by a neighbor’s five dogs. She was stabilized at Nocona General Hospital, but then flown by helicopter to John Peter Smith Hospital. While she was released, Morgan may face additional surgeries for skin grafts.
The dogs were seized and quarantined awaiting a hearing for violating city codes. That case was settled this week, see story on page 3A of the Thursday edition.

Former District Attorney Casey Hall is seeking a change of venue in her theft case due to what her motion calls“highly prejudicial media coverage” that would not allow her to receive a fair trial in the 97th District.
This motion came following a new indictment that was issued in February for theft of property $2,500-$30,000, third degree felony and misapplication of fiduciary property $2,500-$30,000, a state jail felony. The allegations state Hall deposited Montague County funds into her personal bank account between May and October 2022.
The former DA was originally arrested July 9, 2024 for theft $2,500-$30,000 for alleged incidents noted between May and September 2024. The new indictment extended it through Oct. 4, 2024.
