Five Men Arrested for Poaching Wildlife
On November 15, 2009, Washington County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a call for assistance from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. DWR had received a tip that men were poaching deer in an area north of Leeds. DWR officers had responded and detained several individuals.
DWR Officers discovered six deer which were in various stages of processing for consumption. They also discovered one Cottontail rabbit, which is considered upland game. Harvesting is restricted except during designated hunting seasons and a small game license is required. Five people were arrested for unlawful taking or poaching wildlife. Deputies assisted the DWR officers with the arrest and transport of the five individuals, but the case was investigated by the officers from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources.
Enrique Caldera, Jesus Nunes, Ezequiel Parra-Gomez, Eligio Baldovinos-Ambris and Juan Baraza-Nunez were arrested and booked into the Washington County Purgatory Correctional Facility.
