On Thursday, Nov. 8, 2007, a confrontation occurred between two groups of hunters on the 15th Side Road in Amaranth Township. It is alleged that two hunters pointed their shotguns and made death threats at another group of hunters.

Officers from the Dufferin OPP Detachment responded to the complaint but the suspects had fled the scene prior to their arrival.
