A keen pig and deer hunter died during a storm that hit Te Urewera, Ruatahuna on Saturday while out hunting with his grandson and his grandson's cousin. Ten-year-old Mikaere Kiel and his cousin were with Kiel's grandfather, Inia Mikaere-Kiel, when he suffered a heart attack in the middle of the bush. They stayed with him for up to nine hours before trekking back home for help.
