The incident has rekindled debate over a tradition that critics say needs more strict regulation.
The accidental killing of a hiker by a teenage hunter in central France has rekindled debate among the country's presidential hopefuls over a divisive tradition that critics say needs more strict regulation.
The shot came from a 17-year-old girl taking part in a group hunt for wild boar. The teen was initially treated in hospital for shock before being taken into custody for questioning, which continued late Sunday.

Jean-Luc Melenchon, who is leading in the polls among leftwing candidates hoping to unseat President Emmanuel Macron, called to prohibit hunting on weekends and during school holidays"because that's when there's the biggest risk."
