Patrol Investigates Fatal Shooting Of Deputy In Cedar County By Sergeant Jason M. Pace Public Informa on and Educa on Officer Missouri State Highway Patrol-Troop D
On November 2, 2014, at approximately 12:21 a.m., a deputy with the Cedar County Sheriff's Office attempted to stop the driver of a vehicle near the intersection of U.S. 54 and MO 82 in El Dorado Springs for a traffic violation. The vehicle failed to
yield and a short vehicle pursuit ensued. During the pursuit, a passenger exited the vehicle at the intersection of Hickory and High Streets in El Dorado Springs and fled on foot. The deputy then exited his vehicle and a foot chase ensued, leading to a physical altercation and exchange of gunfire. As a result, Cedar County Deputy Matthew Chism, age 25, was criti-
cally injured and transported to Cedar County Memorial Hospital in El Dorado Springs, where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at 1:23 a.m. The suspect who fled from the vehicle, William A. Collins, a 28- year-old man from El Dorado Springs, was pronounced dead at the scene by Cedar County Coroner Bill Neale.
The vehicle involved in the pursuit was located at a residence in El Dorado Springs and a second 28-year-old El Dorado Springs man was taken into custody for questioning regarding the incident. At the request of Cedar County Sheriff Leon Dwerlkotte, the Missouri State Highway Patrol's Division of Drug and Crime Control will conduct the ongoing in-
vestigation. Services will be Thursday, November 6, 2014, at 2 p.m., in the Stockton High School gym with burial in Lindley Prairie Cemetery. Visitation was held Wednesday, November 5, 2014, from 6-8 p.m., in the Stockton Funeral Home. Memorials may be made to Liberty Bank in Matt’s honor.

Ozarks Deer Hunters Are Invited To Help Those In Need By Dona ng Venison Submi ed by Larry Whiteley Bass Pro Shops Share The Harvest Coordinator
Ozark area deer hunters are invited to contribute venison taken during 2014 hunting seasons to Missouri’s Share the Harvest program, which is an easy way for hunters to provide healthy, nutritious meals to those in need. In 2013, Missouri deer hunters donated 227,358 pounds of venison that went to local charities to feed the hungry.
“The benefits of this program are almost incalculable,” said Larry Whiteley, Bass Pro Shops Share the Harvest coordinator. “The obvious benefit is putting more than a million servings of high-protein, low-fat meat on needy people’s plates last year. What is not as obvious are all the crop damage, traffic accidents and human injuries that have been prevented by keeping growth of our state’s deer herd in check.”
Hunters can donate as much of their deer as they like at approved processing plants. They will have to pay any processing fees. There are, however, funds available to help with processing costs when a whole deer is donated. Information about the program is available at each processing plant, online at www.missouriconservation.org/hunt/deer/share/, or by contacting the Conservation Federation of Missouri at 573-634-2322.
Bass Pro Shops is also the Greene County sponsor and works with J&L Custom Processing in Walnut Grove, Missouri, and Turner Meat Processing in Fair Grove, Missouri, for processing deer in the local Share the Harvest program. Bass Pro Shops then picks up the processed venison and delivers it to Crosslines, who allocates it to those in need according to supply. The Missouri Department of Conservation
launched the Share the Harvest program 22 years ago due to concerns about the hunger that burdens many Missourians. The Share the Harvest program provides an easy way for hunters to donate venison they harvest during the state's archery, youth, alternative and firearms deer seasons.
