CLARKSON, N.Y. -- A man suffered life-threatening injuries after deputies say he fell from his tree stand in Clarkson.

Officials from the Monroe County Sheriff's Office say John Henchen Jr. left to go hunting around 5 p.m. Friday in the area of County Line Road and Edmunds Road.

Henchen's father and neighbors located him unconscious on the ground below his tree stand.

Henchen was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital.
