Bear trap tampering case continues in Incline
A mother and daughter from Incline Village on April 23 admitted in court that they tampered with a bear trap. Cheryl Ann Morrison and her 35-year-old daughter, Season, contend they did so because state wildlife officials illegally set the traps.
According the the Reno Gazette-Journal, Judge Alan Tiras did not render a decision after the daylong hearing in Incline Justice Court, but instead wants more input from both attorneys regarding the Oct. 9 incident.
Charges against the women include deliberately tripping a trailed culvert trap, obstructing or interfering with an officer of the Department of Wildlife and tampering with a vehicle.
