POT GROWER SHOT TO DEATH BY BOOBY TRAP

(CP) - A 37-year-old man found dead in a cottage in this western Quebec
community amid more than 100 marijuana plants died as a result of a bizarre
accident, police said yesterday.

Autopsy results show the man was killed in a trap that appeared to be set
to keep thieves away from his pot, police said.

The body of the man, whose name is not being made public , was discovered
early last month in the entrance of his cottage by his brother. The man
died from a gunshot wound.

Police wouldn't say whether they believed the man had set the trap himself.
