WAUSAU, Wis. (AP) -- Marathon County sheriff's officials have identified the victim of a fatal hunting accident.

Lt. Dale Wisnewski says 50-year-old Steve Raskie was hunting by himself Monday and when he failed to return, family members became concerned. They started to search for the Town of Wausau man and found his body in a wooded area not far from his home.

WSAW-TV reports Raskie was found shot in the jaw by the bolt of his crossbow.
