Once again it is that time of year in Michigan. November 15 marks the opening date for firearms deer hunting in Michigan. While this is a boon for the Michigan economy, it can also bring about an uptick in arrests related to firearms as well as DNR violations. Some of the typical charges that are prevalent during hunting season are Improper transport of a firearm, possession of a firearm while intoxicated, felon in possession of a firearm, as well as various other criminal acts related directly to act of hunting itself.
