A hunter accidentally shot and killed another hunter on Tuesday in Juniata County, Pennsylvania, the state Game Commission said.

The Pennsylvania Game Commission told CBS affiliate WHP that 24 hunters were involved in a deer drive around 8:30 a.m. on a mountain near Vincent Tram Road when the accidental shooting happened. Officials reportedly said the victim, who has not been identified as of Tuesday night, was part of the team driving the deer toward the standers, who were waiting for the deer to appear before shooting.

The Game Commission told WHP that the group of hunters was approximately 100 to 200 yards into the drive when a buck broke through the line of drivers. Two members of the hunting party shot at the buck, accidentally shooting the victim who was in direct line of fire.
