Two people face more than a dozen charges after deer were killed illegally in Kosciusko and Elkhart counties, Indiana conservation officers said.
Indiana conservation officers reported an 18-year-old and 17-year-old from Goshen killed six deer in Kosciusko County and at Oxbow Park in Elkhart County.
A park ranger first noticed suspicious activity on Christmas night, conservation officers said in a statement.
The subsequent investigation led a conservation officer to the suspects.
