The House Game and Fisheries Committee is seeking the public's input about whether crossbows should become a legal weapon for hunting, announced state Rep. Gary Haluska, D-Cambria. A public hearing will be held at 7 p.m. June 22 at St. Michael's Fire Hall, Route 869, St. Michael.
Media coverage is invited.
It is not currently legal for crossbows to be used for hunting in Pennsylvania, except in special circumstances. Pennsylvania law allows crossbows to be used only by those who hold a disabled person permit.
