An Oklahoma woman hoping to impress a man on a dating app with a story of shooting a deer instead ended up facing thousands of dollars in fines after the man she was chatting with turned out to be the local game warden.

Cannon Harrison, the game warden for rural McIntosh County in the eastern part of the state, made the usual small talk after matching with a woman on Bumble. When the woman bragged that she had “just shot a bigo buck,” Harrison’s ears perked up. Rifle hunting season was over, so he asked if she’d used a bow.
